Monthly Patching and Weekly Security Patching

The new weekly security patching is throwing me for a bit of a loop with respect to monthly patching. Here's the scenario.

 

At the beginning of August, we decided we wanted to go to Zurich Patch 11m to fix a known issue. We upgraded non-prod instances to 11m and scheduled prod to go to 11m as well at the end of the month.

 

In the middle of the month, weekly security patches started being deployed, and 11m was determined to be a downgrade from Patch 10 Hotfix 4 w33, so our prod update to 11m got canceled.

 

Today, we got notification of the October patching target: Zurich Patch 10 Hotfix 4b.

 

I'd like to get our instances on the same patch level again...but I suspect that if we schedule to go to Patch 12, then weekly security patches are going to determine it as a downgrade and it will be canceled again.

 

Shall we just give that a try or does anyone have a different/better approach?
