you willfully ignore kernel security updates.
If my system is closed to the public world, has a tiny amount of external services, and I am aware of the specific bug delta since system release and what mitigations may or may not be required, I can leave it running as long as I choose to accept the risk. Cute phrases like 'pattern' and 'anti-pattern' are rules of thumb, not absolute truths.
