Thanks for updating this issue.

Unfortunately I don't share your viewpoints on this topic.

While the work might have been "non-trivial", it is most likely not too hard,
either.

The "automatic update functionality and the convenience it provides to users"
is mainly provided by Microsoft's ecosystem, not Collabora or CIB by the way.
Using that as an argument is thus a bit flawed.

Also note that there is a long-standing bug report about making the auto update
on Windows work again:

I don't like having to rely on third companies for continued support of this
software. It does not look convincing to me that the support is split in
between companies for different platforms, either. If at least all
infrastructure and resources needed for building and publishing would be at the
hands of the document foundation that would ensure some trust.

This current situation is rather frustrating for me, though.
