Right but that very answer says:

In other words, currently running code is still running the known-buggy version, exactly what I said originally that kicked-off this whole discussion.

No, what you said was: "until you reboot, your Linux box is still running the known-buggy code"

And then later in the same post (just so we're clear about what you said): "But unless you reboot after installing your Linux updates, your computer still has the bugs."

Linux does not require a reboot to update.
