Amazon just says “Software update is unavailable at this time.” They don’t say why.

There are other possibilities, such as occasional failures during the installation process that might not be an issue once the installation has completed. We just don’t know.
If it was due to an installation failure, why leave 5.12.4 on the OTA server? The usual reason to pull firmware is because of bugs.
You are proving jhowell's point exactly. If it is an occasional installation failure when sideloading the update, why remove it from the OTA?
