    Not sure what their answer is but not delaying security fixes until some fixed monthly date would be my answer.

      To be fair if it’s scored high enough there are usually workarounds posted and supported to hold you over for patch Tuesday.

      I’ve done patch management on both platforms and find the predictability easier to manage. But that’s not home use so grain of salt stuff.

      To be fair, critical security patches for Windows are often delivered out of band (not on patch Tuesday). And malware definitions for Defender are daily.

      Not trying to defend Microsoft entirely, but not everything is delayed until their monthly update schedule.
