There are also other dangers with installing only security fixes. If a

the fix is already packaged. It might be possible to set a security
flag on the update after the fact, but nobody will bother with that.
I would therefore advise against using --security. If one can't
install
all the updates continuously, then one should use a more stable
distribution than Fedora.
tbh I'd go so far as to propose that this functionality should not be
reimplemented in dnf5 at all.
