When updating a home directory we might update the record first, then resize the image and finally synchronize the passwords to the storage layers. These are three individually authenticated operations. Since each might require touching a FIDO2 or PKCS#11 key we should say what we are doing. Hence do so. Usually we are pretty quiet with what we do, and let's stick to that. Hence show this information only if we actually do more than one thing. If we only update (and do not resize/sync passwords) then let's be quiet as usual, as the command line then sufficiently clarifies what we are doing.
