The API that FDroid is using has only just come out.

Not true. Android has supported rootless unattended upgrades at a system level since Android 12 (October 4 2021). That was nearly 2 and a half years ago, so it's been a while.

This is what Neo Store used. F-Droid only just now got around to supporting this with this recent update.
