Can anyone besides web get away with continuous deployment? IOS already wants to update too often, I don't want CD to my phones or probably my desktop or server OS. Especially in enterprise. And in cases where hardware hasn't even been released it is impossible, much less undesirable. It makes sense to talk about continuous delevery amd how to squeeze out extrabenefits from that model. I suspect it is mainly about automating as much as possible between CDel and CDep but I have obly ever worked in CDel on hardware that doesn't even exist yet.

Things like classic Ubuntu get continuously updated with security fixes, and with livepatch, even kernel gets updated without a reboot.

Even their process is very much like true CI/CD but packages only get into "proposed" archive (still accessible to the public) without further human vetting (I mean, a code review is human vetting too).

I personally want my desktop/server apps to automatically update according to traditional LTS rules (no breaking changes, just bugfixes).
