"description": "AKS downloads and updates the nodes with tested security updates. These updates honor the maintenance window settings and produce a new VHD that is used on new nodes. On some occasions it's not possible to apply the updates in place, in such cases the existing nodes will also be re-imaged to the newly produced VHD in order to apply the changes. This option incurs an extra cost of hosting the new Security Patch VHDs in your resource group for just in time consumption."

nit: the description is not the same as what's defined in preview API version

AKS will update the nodes VHD with patches from the image maintainer labelled "security only" on a regular basis. Where possible, patches will also be applied without reimaging to existing nodes. Some patches, such as kernel patches, cannot be applied to existing nodes without disruption. For such patches, the VHD will be updated, and machines will be rolling reimaged to that VHD following maintenance windows and surge settings. This option incurs the extra cost of hosting the VHDs in your node resource group.

Can we correct the preview APIs documentation so that it matches the approved GA docs?

Ideally preview + ga should be in sync in terms of what they are saying.

Thanks @FumingZhang for thinking to check this!
