Can you flesh out your statement a bit?

You distinguish between security updates and OS updates. I'm not aware of any difference, an update is an update. I've never seen an OTA update that wasn't a point release. How are these deployed differently?

My old SE phone got random OTA updates regularly, but non of them changed the android version number. I have no idea what those updates where though.
