I'd be inclined to agree.

I don't even know how to do an offline upgrade. Most of my systems precede dnf-dragora, I think that's the current desktop upgrade app. It's not even installed.

Besides, the last time I did a system-upgrade, I watched the boot messages. I saw lots of userspace stuff getting started. Looks to me like offline really only means no user sessions or desktop. The only think that you take out of the picture are X. Although this would mitigate problems updating X or applications, all the low level stuff is still running. And that's the stuff that would cause the greatest deal of chaos if it blows up during an update.
