Also, for desktop software, I have found that small releases are a lot less risky.

You experience small issues, one by one, instead of a massive amount of bugs coming all of a sudden.

For example, last time I updated a Linux distribution with 6-month releases this was the case. Whereas with a rolling release one, it's just much more pleasant.

This is true of releasing code in general. Changes that accumulate over time actually increase risk whether it be desktop or server-side.
