I agree with you. Bugs happen, that's just the way it is.
But my issues with this aren't really related to code:
* downloading without user 'consent' (in the loosest sense of the word)
* and mainly: a proposed fix being a way the server can force an update on the user.
This whole issue just stems from the unreasonably high update-frequency imposed by the developer. They aren't addressing that and instead conclude that perhaps they can avoid a high bill by building remote code-execution into their app. As opposed to just adding a toggle and letting users decide whether they want updates to be auto downloaded. I would argue that's more of a UI/UX issue than a coding issue.
