What about declaring -security without -updates as unsupported in the 
documentation?

It is not obvious to me why this should be a supported configuration,
and the only question would IMHO be whether to already consider that 
unsupported for trixie or only starting from forky.

The trixie release notes already describe enabling both,[1]
and in general not having -updates enabled is a bad idea.
