Changing it would require some design work. Changing the label from'
settings' to 'Settings & Livepatch' was an easy way to get livepatch
mentioned but isn't a great user experience indeed. I wouldn't consider
it as a rls issue though, the features advertized are available in the
interface even if the tabs aren't the most obvious UI elements

Title:
  'Settings & Livepatch' button opens 'settings' tab, not livepatch

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If livepatch is supported on the running release but is not enabled,
  update-manager changes the text of the 'Settings…' button to 'Settings
  & Livepatch…'.  However, clicking on the button takes the user to the
  'Updates' tab of software-properties-gtk, which includes no livepatch
  settings.  To get to the livepatch settings, you have to notice the
  separate 'Livepatch' tab at the top of the window.  This is
  suboptimal.
