Yes. Sorry, poor choice of words.

It goes away and comes back again. And there's a notification on my
Taskbar 'Get the latest features and security improvements with the
newest feature update.'

It doesn't do anything apparently. But IIRC I had the same behaviour
when 25H2 was available. I kept closing it and one day it was gone. No
option to install it through Updates, so I just waited (a long time)
until it installed automatically with the other updates.
