It sure would be helpful if the updates didn't actually break things. It's usually not the security fixes that do that—stuff rarely breaks on LTSC, or in Debian point releases—it's all the other changes that get rolled in.
There's just too much churn across the industry. Even if the changes are good, too little thought is given to the cost of change itself.
