Taking a guess here, but I presume that the PS5 launch discs probably didn't have the firmware updates yet, as the discs had gone gold a month or so before launch.
I'm sure if you got a PS5 disc that released 2-3 months after the console's initial release, it'd probably have any required update on it.
