Yes they are obviously upgrading their software because they need to make money and adding features and fixing bugs is a great way to do that.

The only solution to not having a broken music workstation is to never connect that machine to the internet and never update it. Physical instruments keep working for decades because...they are never connected to the internet and never updated.

Completely agree, except I'd say physical electronic instruments have a lifetime of about 20-30 years now. Several synths I own are now non- or half-working because of fading displays, broken floppy drives, power supplies and even chips going bad. The relentless churn of music computer software and hardware setups has also existed since the 80s. I guess it is probably worse for photo & video production.
