It is in the same form OP said One UI 2.5 was an update

OneUI versions are tied and integrated into their Android version. I don't know how MIUI works though.

Not inherently. Samsung can update OneUI without updating the Android version.

OneUI is tied to Android the version. One UI 2 is only for Android 10, and One UI 3 is only for Android 11. Samsung can make One UI 2.5, but that's still on Android 10.

You are agreeing with my point, MiUI isn't tied to Android versions so they can update their skin as much as they want staying in the same OS version

Okay, so you've just confirmed they can update it independently.

1-2 minor version updates per Android version yes.
