WTH doesn't updates show clearly what is restarted before doing the update?

Month of "What the heck?!"

I get a lot of questions if this or that will restart the host, addon’s, or just the HA.
Why doesn’t the different updates clearly state WHAT is restarted?

Core updates will only restart the Home Assistant container, automations, scripts, integrations, etc… but not add-ons as they each run in their own containers.

Supervisor updates will only restart the supervisor.

Add-on updates only restart the the add-on they are for.

Home Assistant OS updates will restart everything.

If you understand the architecture of Home Assistant this becomes a lot more obvious.

Hi @tom_l
Yes, you are absolutely right, and I know that, but when I try to onboard new users, these are the questions I get a LOT, question is what route are HA going? Still nerd-only or also for ‘regular’ people? So for me it’s a nice polished thing to do for end users.
