screenshot of to updated deb. pressing remove (verwijderen) updates the package

In debian Bookworm I have to click the uninstall button to update a freshly downloaded deb package. (discord) from the web.

I directly open discover from the web browser (firefox) 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install a deb. (click Install) -> deb installed
2. update a deb (click uninstall) deb updated.

OBSERVED RESULT
The install button states uninstall.  

EXPECTED RESULT
The install button shoud state update.

I can confirm this. I also have this issue with Discord. They provide Deb-only updates, and do not provide a software repository. So we are given a deb, click it in Dolphin, and are given only an uninstall option by discover. It would be great if it were able to recognize that this deb is already installed, but an older version, and provide an update or upgrade mechanism directly.
