Comment (by knutsp):

 Hello, @josvlaar, welcome to Trac and thank you for the suggestion.

 By it's philosophy [https://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/] WordPress
 adds new user facing settings only when needed by many or most users. At
 first glance, this looks like an edge case, as very few needs this, and
 those who may need such for technical or special server setup or
 maintenance reasons, will usually have the skill to alter this behaviour
 to their special needs.

 WordPress updates are contolled by a few PHP constants, the most used is
 `AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED`. It's value (true or false) may depend on
 anything available in PHP at load time.

 Could this help in your case? https://wordpress.org/support/topic/set-
