We always need to balance readability and detail, and it's not feasible
to include a message that caters to every detail in the 70ish characters
we have.

The alternative would be "Keeping back" but "Not upgrading" was arguably
much clearer.

The display is very clear that this is a summary of the actions to be
(not) taken that were displayed further up.

As such I'm afraid there's no better solution.
