"commit.downloadMode = DownloadAsNeeded" plus UPS do well enough avoiding any such trouble, proven over many moons via lots of TW installations.
I doubt that the 15 minutes granted by the typical UPS would be enough to finish the install, even if the network survives the power failure. The telco hardware in my house doesn't have batteries, I had to install an UPS of my own there.
commit.downloadMode = DownloadAsNeeded" downloads an rpm, installs that rpm, downloads, installs, downloads, installs, etc. Nothing breaks to hit Ctrl-C, and the worst from an exhausted battery on a smart UPS might be one rpm needs to be force reinstalled after power comes back on. It's not much different from having the power continually on, but having the WAN die for several hours in the middle of upgrading, which used to be quite common here. Zypper's fault handling is far better than DNF's.
Install one rpm for the kernel, crash before installing the other kernel things rpm. The worst possible moment.
I use "DownloadInHeaps", but in this case I would use "DownloadInAdvance". - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
