I was annoyed too when I saw the message, but, if I understood it correctly, it’s a matter of widening the scope of the LTS version. The extra packages would only be updated on the next release, or are already updated if you don’t use LTS. The message make it seem like they are withholding security patches, but it has always been like that and nobody cared. We just want everything to be updated, even if it’ll make no difference.

I have been using them for the same reason after trying a couple of other ones. I didn’t like their client for Linux, but I’m happy otherwise.

It’s not always that simple. For beach volley, I saw athletes commenting that shorts are worse because of the sand getting in the way. Men would chose something better in a different culture. There’s sexism I believe, but it’s not always what we would expect.
