I am using iwctl directly.

Yes, I do see a bunch of deauthentication events:
"Received Deauthentication event, reason: 6, from_ap: true
event: disconnect-info, reason: 6"
and a couple of these in between:
"Received Deauthentication event, reason: 3, from_ap: false
event: disconnect-info, reason: 3"

Using USB tethering and disconnecting wifi seems to be working very stable, so I'd say it's solid, yes.
