No idea but I know Windows does. A Fx505DT laptop I had bricked itself with a windows-triggered bios update. Warranty covered it but I went a month without a laptop.
Not sure about the hand held but the corporate lenovo I was given autoupdates everything untile I went through and uninstalled the lenovo software center
These things don’t update the BIOS automatically do they?

I’ve been on Linux since 2014 when a windows update bricked my Thinkpad bios
Is that an 11 thing? I’m still on 10, and never heard of the OS itself updating a BIOS.
No, happened on W10 not 11.
It depends on the vendor. Some vendors push bios through Windows update service. Dell Lenovo and HP all do this pretty regularly.
