Microsoft has definitely not been a great tenant on dual boot systems over the past year. Usually you get the occasional MBR overwrite, but it’s been pretty bad. Windows has been assuming it’s the only OS.
Microsoft has incredibly been doing stuff I’d consider unlikely just a decade ago. They’re at the point where I go “unlikely but far from impossible. Likely in a while”.

Never again
That seems extremely unlikely. That is controlled by the BIOS itself. Windows Update does deliver BIOS updates, but only as provided by the OEM.
