i hope this wasn't proposal of blanket restarts everywhere. this could get bad quickly. i recall friends cursing linux distros going one step further, starting everything that's installed with default config

many things would happily run after update, nginx even has special no interrupt upgrade which replaces binary

for sshd it would maybe ok but who knows. all around restarting is bad. at least optout would be needed

what if it needs config change or other kind of adjustments before admin decides to restart it. or wants to choose time
