Well of course it's not.  But the worst case we're risking here is what is
currently the only case: a boot failure.

>It would be much better to prevent the upgrade from happening on the boot pool, and only allow it when boot environment is updated, instead.

Fully agree, but that's a significant effort, while what I'm talking about
might be a one line change.
