Paranoia is hardly compatible with laziness. To upgrade RELENG_4_3 to RELENG_4_3 you must know that previous version is now danger. Hence you read at least announce@. If you read announce@ you can know that new release is published. Hence, you know that tag should be changed and you have to prepare for possible problems.
