So what does count ?
I have no idea what exactly would constitute as a "critical update". I suppose anything that prevents Legacy from being playable. Other than that, consider Legacy as is.
It would be nice to get some clarification from someone at fdev, ( hint,hint )
It's been clarified often enough. Legacy will not receive any content updates, it will stay the way it was when it was split off from the live game.

Elite Dangerous Update 14 and Beyond: Live and Legacy Modes - Elite Dangerous
Greetings Commanders. In our Access to 4.0 post from August, we mentioned that future content would only be available to players on the 4.0 framewo...
Critical update would be a game breaking bug or maybe a whole bunch of longstanding bugs (that are getting fixed in live so they might as well go into legacy).
PP2 is a new feature, that would introduce more bugs. Making more bugs is not how you stop working on a dead branch.

edit: Oh, you said live. Hello, I'm an idiot.
Yes - it is a lie. Been pointed out to them a few times 
In general, "critical update" means "Without this, the thing fails to function at all".
Technically it's still true. Just not for console.Yes - it is a lie. Been pointed out to them a few times
That's where it's from, and Server Maintenance doesn't count as content
I don't know what you want to hear. Legacy is exactly that, a legacy version of the game that is not being updated anymore. Nothing will change that.
Well, FDev should at least stop advertising the Elite on Consoles as being a "Living Game [...] that grows and expands with new features and content" when it actually is having the Legacy status, with no new features or new content expected to come to consoles.
Eventually someone is bound to be miffed about it so much to file a complaint for false advertising.

Agreed. It's bad form.
Which will probably lead to nothing except maybe the advertising being adjusted. For the foreseable future at least, development for consoles has ceased to be.
I've seen that false advertising on the xbox store but I really don't want to do owt about it.
In my irrational brain I see them closing the legacy servers for good if they get hassle from legal bodies. That would be bad.
