Doesn’t Linux require Kernel updates quite often though? Pretty sure those require a reboot.
Sure rebooting is annoying but you only have to do it 12 times a year so it really doesn’t matter that much unless you computer runs on tape or something.
Updating servers can by experience be more annoying though due to shitty applications that need manual intervention.
But clients are no problem.
P.S While not relevant to home users, windows nowadays be fully patched without rebooting for 2 out of 3 updates. You do have to pay for it with extra licenses though. I assume Linux also can be hot patched in a similar way (but maybe for free?) but normally it’s not.
