You're correct.

The only time I can think of that this approach wouldn't work is if the quadlet config file specified a tag/version on the image setting besides latest. That is, if the quadlet file specified something like Image=docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:a_old_version. I usually stick with latest on mine.

EG: Image=docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
