I see plenty of articles on how to change the phone numbers associated with the sign in & security section, but I do not see anything on how to update the phone number in the contact info from the "preferences" section, where there is no option to do so.
Has anyone been able to solve this?

When you update the phone number and/or email address in the "Sign In & Security", section does it not flow automatically to the Contact Info displayed in the Preferences section? Did you already try it, and are you saying you updated everything in "Sign In & Security", but nothing changed in the Contact Info shown in Prefefences? Like you, I don't see any way to make changes directly in that section.
I don't have a way to test changing it since my 2 contact items have already been verified, and I don't want to change them and have to verify them again.
However, there is another way to make changes to phone and email address, but I don't know what will happen; i.e., I don't know whether it will flow only to Sign In & Security alone or whether it will also update Preferences. It may or may not make any difference. But you can play around with it, if you wish.
Unfortunately it seems the phone number in the contact info of the preferences section is separate. The phone number on the overview quick actions is tied to the phone number in the sign in & security section so that is already the phone number I need it to be whereas the number in the preferences section remains unchanged.
