    • changing apps for no other reason than “it hasn’t been updated for a year”

    That’s the only part I disagree with. Software not updated in a long time can easily become a risk.

    Everything else though, spot in.

      aimed at beginners who confuse “hasn’t been updated for a year” with “hasn’t needed to be updated for a year”

        Looking at it from that standpoint, you’re onto something on that as well.
