When an entity is updated, an update query is executed for the base table of the entity even there is no change for that in the base table from SqlContentEntityStorage::doSaveFieldItems()
Update make sense if an entity is revisionable but not for a non-revisionable entity having no change for the base table.
Use case is - I have a custom non-revisionable content entity and bulk updating entities from an API call triggers DB update for base table
