Maybe I'm looking at a different guide than you, but I'm not seeing any way for qbittorrent to auto update the forwarded port from Proton. Everytime your VPN connection resets (either from reboot or just a dropped connection), you have to manually update the port in qbittorrent. Of course there are some scripts that can do this for you.
Equity comes out of the idea that people don't all have the same ability or means to do things. Equity is the leveling of the playing field so that no matter someone's level of intelligence, economic background, or any other efficiency/deficiency, everyone has the same opportunity to participate.
Equality gives staircases to everyone. In this case, not everyone can go up a floor. Equity builds ramps, lifts, or both. In this case everyone has an equal opportunity to go up a floor. You can't have equal opportunity without equity.
You can disable the update check in the config file. Then just update with your package manager as usual and forget about it.
