I personally agree it's not the best habit to do it nevertheless, and I expect users to put hosts to maintenance before performing any upgrade. We cannot tell which update requires maintenance and which doesn't (or for that matter - requires a reboot or a service restart) - there's no metadata available to do attached to the packages that can tell us that.
