The problem is that you generally can't support yourself by just selling to existing customers; you need to keep selling to new customers.
And the market keeps evolving, so you need to evolve with the market if you want to continue selling.
If you do it slowly enough, and cautiously, then existing customers can adapt.
But if you stop updating your app, it's eventually going to lose its appeal and will be forgotten.
All of them? Hell I hate it when things change in a way that forces me to give them attention now rather than when I have time. Nothing worse than doing an update and having to rework my flow, scripts, and code just to be productive again. Let me choose when I update my tools, don't force it on me just because your UI team found an even more complicated and torturous way to make simple things ugly and hard - I have my own work to do.
