Something in between is possible. If you were to get annoying popups that you had to dismiss daily until you updated your system, most people would just click OK and deal with it. Unless they were in a hurry, as suggested by the parent.

That's what they tried for the previous decade. The only thing which happened was training users to either click cancel without reading or figure out how to disable updates.

Well with this announcement, they just trained me to disable updates - so I guess that's backfiring on them.
