Many plugins display an admin notice that comes with a button that will lead to you changing / reloading the page.
These notices are also being shown while the process of updating plugins is underway.
If you're leaving the page during that time, there's a chance that the upgrading procedure doesn't finish properly and a .maintenance file will be left on your server, which means your WordPress website is no longer available.

I believe it would make sense to suppress all admin notices during the updating procedure.
This has happened to a lot of less experienced WordPress users that don't know that you simply shouldn't touch your keyboard / mouse while the updating procedure is underway.

The attached screenshot shows an admin notice by WP Rocket while updating the plugins is / was underway.
