The difference is that the software center will setup an offline update, so you need to reboot to run it. dnf also now has this option if you use the right command (it's new).
I didn't know that. What is the option? A quick search of 'reboot' and 'offline' in the man page doesn't show anything.
Yes, it is rather hidden. It's part of the "system-upgrade" plugin which makes sense, but also makes it rather hard to find. "man dnf-system-upgrade" will get you the info. The two new commands are "offline-distrosync" and "offline-upgrade".
