I think one has to go along with the update philosophies of any operating system. My main system is not Windows, but I try to keep all Windows VM's up to date. If I go to settings and tell it to check for updates, it will always update right away. If I don't want to risk updates when I am doing something, I disable the NIC.
I always have a copy one update back just in case. I don't recall Windows ever messing with Classic Shell other than having to allow CS to reconfigure itself. Don't recall too much to grumble about, a few times it did update when I ran a job overnight. Grumbled then. Old people grumble a lot. 
I think you are wise to rant, clears out the cobwebs.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

You are way off the happy path, and the other problem is the kiddie coders at msft have no clue about actual use scenarios and they only know people who install updates immediately without question.
You are not compliant with their world view.

 You're right about being way off "happy"!
Do Microsoft actually know how much people loathe them?
ps it's telling me to update AGAIN today! Is this normal? Every four days???

Since @SanderRosell must be busy with other things today, I'm submitting a SOTW in his stead. If he's simply forgotten then, this song is actually appropriate.

Given that spark, he'll think about it. In case he is rebuked he'll likely flat-out wine about it.

I always get worried when I don't see the "Sound of the Week" post from Sander.
Not because I worry about if something has happened to him, but I worry that it might actually only be Thursday and I still have another full day until the weekend

Sad thing is that the closer you are to the weekend, the closer you are to monday as well...

For my brain, every Monday is a holiday

... finally I can quietly work on some relevant things which I need to understand better ...

There are some weekends where I can't wait for Monday! (yardwork/manual labor/honeydews)
