Looks like Tesla may be changing their upgrade model a bit from always requiring a download for updates to manipulating flags at their end on previously downloaded code.
Just installed 2.52.36 on my AP2 Model X. Nothing about AP2. Same release notes as last version.
Elon said the new update would run AP2 in shadow mode for a week or so on most of the fleet, so I think it's still reasonably likely that this is what you got.

poking around yes ~ and had it not been for that poking around, we'd have never known that intermittently - safety assist features were working. And then dropping out. Yes, at first we simply wasted 10 or 15 miles driving around with the hope that cameras would calibrate & boom, we'd be up and running. Not so. So, since we have other transportation, it's garaged until the dang system is operational the way we were lead to believe it would be. Who wants to be out - driving around thinking safety assist is up, only to have it drop out at a most inopportune time. If we'd have gotten the X when it was 1st available to us .... only to find a couple ghosting images through the windshield at night, we do the same thing. Either no night driving, or park it n' wait.

Awesome! Looks like you got the shadow mode update!
I was notified that a software update was available. Tried install immediately. Update failed, twice. Finally told i have to wait for another update opportunity. Then car turned "off" (displayed on front display) and wouldn't turn back on with brake pedal. Rebooted Touchscreen and then finally - after 5+ minutes, the car came back on... Weird. Sad I didn't get update...

I've experienced something similar with the 2.50.185 update. I still don't have that firmware version, although it does indicate that version number in the "vehicle status screen" (when you click the T icon at the top).
I can hope. No indication of such from the release notes. Just going by what EM has tweeted the last 2 weeks, I guess it is possible. Hopefully it will switch "on" later this week

My experience has been that Tesla only updates the release notes on major version upgrades and not bug fixes or minor changes.

I think it's in shadow mode for the ones who received .36 and tesla will activate it with another small update (while the car is learning or calibrating itself without the messages) to push it to active mode....
People were complaining too much so it may be running in the background now.
Of course, this is pure speculation.

Cause they hired Chris Lattner from Apple: Tesla Poaches Apple Director for Autopilot Software Unit
Sterling was managing both space X and autopilot. Now he goes 100% to space X and there is dedicated guy fir autopilot. I thinks that's a good thing in long run. Short term there maybe some ramp up time.
you might figure out that we know not so much,
I might offer a tweet from Elon
Elon Musk on Twitter
and couple of links
Tesla hires creator of Swift programming language from Apple to lead Autopilot software
The guy who designed many of Apple’s iconic Macs will now be building Tesla vehicles
I think you are confusing Sterling and Jinnah Hosein. I don't think Sterling was/is involved in Space X.

You are aware that the calibration exercise will not complete until you turn off the car and turn it back on again?
