Thank you.  Yes, about:buildconfig shows the --disable-updater flag.
And software-properties-gtk --open-tab=2 showed that the setting for
security updates was to download and install them immediately.

I have changed that setting to only download security updates rather
than to install them immediately.  This should allow me to schedule
updates to Firefox when its ongoing continuity is not critical.

(Somehow when I run update-manager, it regularly finds "Security
updates" that have not been immediately applied, even though the setting
was formerly "Download and install immediately".  Are "Security updates"
in update-manager different from the "security pocket" that Firefox
updates occur in?

Thank you for the diagnosis.
