In a graphical emacs -Q instance, open any Org file. Export it as PDF and open
(C-e l o). Then do the same again. Emacs prompts "File foo.pdf changed
on disk. Reread from disk (yes or no)" although no external program (not
counting latex as external here as it was started by Emacs) actually
changed the file.

Emacs  : GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.14)
 of 2020-03-26, modified by Debian
Package: Org mode version 9.4 (release_9.4-103-gf0b8de @ /home/erik/.emacs.d/straight/build/org/)

IMO, selecting the "...and open" option implies that you want to (re-)load the PDF.
