Unfortunately security updates are explicitly listed as to be handled like critical path packages, so Adam is correct in the current context, at least if the wiki page is not incorrect.
I think you're misunderstanding the wiki page. The "including security updates" phrase there means that security updates for critical path packages are to be treated like any other critpath updates. It doesn't say anything about security updates for other packages.
Right. It's pretty simple - at present, whether an update is a security update simply doesn't matter to the acceptance process. It's not taken into account at all. What's taken into account is whether the update is for a stable release or for a pre-release, and whether it's critical path. That's all.
