I'm saying it's never happened to me. Not once. Zero times. Zero is less than one.

Normal Windows updates don't take an hour long. Give me a break. The ones that do are the version upgrades. That's like the equivalent of a distro upgrade.

Sure, your experience may be different.

That happened in 2013 with random laptop they gave me. I kid you not it took that long, could have been a bug somewhere in the OEM, never cared enough to find out.

But my experience is just as real as much as yours.

Normal Windows updates don't take an hour

Correct. But who can tell the difference beforehand between a normal update and an abnormal one? The problem is Windows tends to hide those details. I've sat on support calls where a server needs to be rebooted for some configuration change, and Windows insists on applying updates because hey, you're rebooting anyway, so what if it takes 1/2 hour to do this thing that should take 5 minutes...
