So, if I understood You well, Steam users dont have to go trough that lengty procedure. Instead it should be enough to run your "SH5updateSteam.exe"?
Can you describe what exactly your exe will do? What will happen if someone with non-steam version runs your app?
The exe will overwrite any sh5.exe file present in the install directory, regardless of version. Therefore should only be run on the vanilla install as needed. The program will attempt to check for existing backup files, if not present it will continue. As for the process it's simply automating the extraction of cab contents to the install folder. The program will create a copy of your original exe file at sh5.exe.steam and a secondary copy of the patched exe at sh5.exe.patch as a backup for those who go on to use GenericPatcher.

I have been looking for a way to automate using Generic Patcher but it seems it doesn't handle command line args.
