The updated boosters are only for people who have already had their primary vaccinations, using the original vaccines. .... They’re not to be used for initial vaccinations.

why are they not for initial vaccinations?
i get that original antigenic sin is not well understood, but wouldn't it be better to fixate on newer + older variants? i'd prefer that, but perhaps somebody with a working brain cell unlike mine now knows.
this lay article seems a bit confused.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2022/08/22/coronavirus-immune-response-boosters/ .
this unreasonable wall of text in science might or might not be relevant https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciimmunol.abq5901 . but my brain cell and my average of one microsecond window per day of semi-almost-but-not usefulness are not up to it either.
in any case this would be relevant to me if i had a choice. i am still trying to get somebody to vaccinate in house /after/ i wake up to prevent permanent harm from circadian hit. [bedridden.]
