Can’t update a plugin if PHP version is not supported

    Let’s say I have a website using PHP7.4, and a plugin X at v 1.0 not compatible to PHP7.4.
    Now, let’s say plugin X release v 2.0 which is 7.4 compatbile. I can of course log into the site and update the plugin (yet disabled).

    From Main WP Dashboard, instead, the bulk to update X plugin from 1.0 to 2.0 fails.
    It says “ERROR on the child site: Current WordPress or PHP versions do not meet minimum requirements for update.”

    This doesn’t make any sense to me.
