I won't argue against that logic. However, both patch 3 and this one update the
same knowledge article. What IMO matters here the most is that once all of the
changes you're introducing are applied as a unit, the article needs to
reflect both the changes. From that perspective, at least to me it makes total
sense to group the docs changes from both 3/6 and this patch to a single update
to the SEV article accordingly.
