At least with Linux, the updates replace the broken stuff on your
machine, and you don't need to hang onto to the update packages.  ;-)

I've watched Windows fill up the drive with downloaded patches that you
must keep on the drive, and it applies some patches on top of what it's
doing each run-time (booting gets slower and slower).
