Naturally any single program which is updated needs to be restarted for the updates to take effect, but this means that the entire computer doesn't need to be rebooted. Even kernel level drivers can be updated without a reboot - probably the the closest you get is when you have to update your GUI (either KDE or Gnome) or Nvidia drivers, but even that is a "drop back to the command prompt, issue 1 command, start gui again" procedure, not a full restart (only takes 10 seconds).
Most people don't have a separate SMS or SCCM server knocking around (medium sized business and above could, but thats not "most" people)
