I came across your article on security updates when I was researching this. Thanks for writing it - it was super helpful. One of the sub goals for us is to quantify the lag that you've observed here. We're also reviewing an automated check that would flag times when an apt upgrade would be material. This is very much based on your bad arguments 1 through 4.

Cool, I would love to see some numbers! I know that some official images aren't updated for literally months (e.g. `centos`, even before the CentOS/RHEL decoupling), but others are more frequent.

will send when we've got some data. Had been wanting to reach out to you about an idea for an automated check anyway.
