Why do you use that tool for updating, instead of doing it
automagically? I have been doing it via cron for as long as I can
remember and perhaps even longer and I would like to know if I am doing
something wrong.

Once in a blue moon I do a manual update to check if there are any
kernel updates, although I think I am going to include that check in the
shutdown and reboot scripts.

I can asume that somebody who shuts down his PC every day, could do a
bit of the same. During startup (at the end) an update, except for
things that needs extra input, like a kernel update and at shutdown the
update for ecerything, so that you have the new kernel the next day.
