: I believe the reason for this is due to:
: 
: 1) A multi-user system
: 2) You want as little precesses (daemons) running as possible

3) Kernel <-> user interface changes have been known to panic the
system.  These interfaces aren't tickled by single user.

4) Unpredictible behavor can happen during the upgrade.  This may be s
different way of saying (2).
