Description
If the user enabled the read-only filesystem and then performs an update, the system will reboot and go back to the pre-update state, which is not what the user wants or expects.
The update dialog should show an error message if the user attempts to update while the read-only filesystem is enabled.

Research direction
Start by locating the web UI's update dialog and the existing update action. Check how the read-only filesystem state can be detected before an update begins, then make the dialog show an error instead of proceeding. Done means an attempted update in that state is blocked with a clear error message.
