And indeed, the package defines "/qn" installer switch, which means "no UI
during the installation process" [1]. This is known that in this mode, no UAC
is shown [2]. It is likely that the author of the mentioned commit hadn't
tested what they added thoroughly enough (e.g., they might have UAC disabled
locally, or use winget from admin command prompt).

Definitely NOTOURBUG.
