But that's not really true. You get temporary stability, and then have to do a massive update which is guaranteed to break shit. Do you have a staging server for your desktop? If not, you're not actually getting any benefit from waiting to update.
I'd rather do some maintenance every two years than once a month. I just don't have time or willpower to deal with it because I already have a technical job with computers at work.
Also, last time I did a full upgrade on debian it didn't break anything. Some distros just do a much better job of testing. Rolling releases have always broken something for me after a while.
