To be fair, it would also be highly distruptive if you let the computer run overnight to finish some long running job and Windows decides it’s rebootin’ time. The point is: the OS shouldn’t decide for you to reboot.
but the option to choose a new time was greyed out
Which only ever happened for me if I had already pushed back an update multiple times. Which then means they had all the time in the world to make sure they do the update before they start such a critical, multiple days long process. These are people without forced update they would never make updates and they are the reason forced updates have to happen now.

Windows doesn’t reboot when things are running.
Microsoft wouldn’t have to force reboots if there weren’t people like lunarul who keep their computer running perpetually.
Plenty of reports to the contrary
