If with this you mean requiring a restart then arent' you wrong? Ubuntu is linux, right, so it's an operating system, and it has stuff like /var/run/reboot-required.pkgs so it's not like all linux flavors out there don't ever require reboots.

If you meant forced restarts at a given time (or whatever windows 10 does) then you're right. For now, and hopefully forever.

No, you're wrong. Ubuntu will not ever force you to reboot your machine. The most it will do is recommend a restart.
