I just like getting updates. Not as often as OnePlus but more often th[a]n the current rate.
Counting the update currently rolling out, the unlocked Note10 has been through four firmware versions--the original plus three updates--in the month and a half that it's been out. What rate of updates do you desire if that rate is insufficient?

1st time unlocked gets updates before carriers.
Not at all. One recent example: the unlocked Note9 (N960U1) advanced from CSF1 (June security patch) to CSF9 (July security patch) on July 30 of this year, while the carriers stayed on CSF1 until mid-August.

They may be pushing this one faster to cover the zero-day vulnerabilities.

Yeah I'm pretty sure this is case otherwise we wouldn't see an update til later in the month. Glad they're on top of it. My AT&T N10+ hasn't gotten it yet but I'm sure it'll be any time now.

Is there a current zero-day vulnerability other than CVE-2019-2215? That one hasn't been shown to afflict the Note10s, as far as I know. And it's not fixed until the Oct 6 security patch, according to Android's documentation:
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2019-10-01.

But the firmware updates rolling out now (ASJ2 for the N975F, ASI3 for the N975U1) only have a security patch level of Oct 1. Conceivably, Samsung has patched the vulnerability (if any) separately, though.
