I don't get the shutdown reboot problem. Is a restart every 15 days unacceptable in return for reliable, consistent security/bug patches? Even Ubuntu is like that. I've used a mac book air for a little while and the update software had a glitch which caused it to get stuck. So I have zero experience with osx updates.

I think that it's unacceptable not to ask, as it effectively equals unreliability.

It is not acceptable because it breaks you workflow, possibly implies closing applications and opening them again.
