A lot of medical stuff seems to suffer from this problem of caution paralyzing the behavior of professionals, not just in IT.
That being said, most commercial software seems to be way worse. There was the article the other month of a windows 10 machine automatically updating while a patient was being operated on forcing them to be kept under for an extra few hours.
