Regarding the latter, I imagine what I got, when I went to Configure > Schedule TeX Live Update Checks and obtained in the log

2022-02-02 15:51:49 +0000 Notice -[TLMOperation main][2312]	Failed executing `/Applications/TeX/TeX Live Utility.app/Contents/MacOS/agent_installer.py --install --plist /var/folders/1r/dhdtft1s4qgfjwbcpkfhqf5c0000gn/T/TLMLaunchAgentController/com.googlecode.mactlmgr.update_check.plist --script /Applications/TeX/TeX Live Utility.app/Contents/Resources/update_check.py` (error 127)

is precisely what you mean by "The code to install it and schedule it is _not_ in place".

I had tried that before reading the detail of your message, then read it and realized the observed behaviour is probably normal.

Other than that, I tried in a Terminal window

/Applications/TeX/TeX\ Live\ Utility.app/Contents/MacOS/texliveupdatecheck

and it seems to have run successfully since I did not get any error message back. At the same time, with TLU already open, I saw appearing in the log

so it looks like that's the anticipated behaviour.
