Research direction
Reproduce the reported sequence with winget update --id microsoft.windowsterminal, restarting Windows Terminal between attempts, and compare the displayed version after each run. Trace the update and application-restart handling from the winget CLI entry point; done means a single update completes and the new Terminal version is reported after restarting the application.
