What is there to be afraid of? Don't you have backups?

Also, debian/ubuntu systems can easily be setup to auto update and reboot on a regular basis, leaving you manual maintenance only for the larger version upgrades.

Backups are not going to help if a reboot breaks something.

You do not reboot systems for regular updates. Only in case of critical kernel updates do you consider it
