All my Android devices have it... (S10, Tab A & 6P)

Strangely, only issue is with my Pixel 3

maybe clear cache for play services, and restart phone

I wonder why Google doesn't release separate security update and OS upgrade?

I am still on 10 now. I need the security update but still sticking to 10 for now.

simple... coz it's not in google's interest to do so. google's aim is to get everyone to update to the latest and beta test their software

we are all google suckers... lol
