Why not? Do you manually install the patches coming down every month? Do you put all of them through some validation? On your home machine? How are you doing this validation? I mean aside of installing a patch and uninstalling it when you come across an issue?
Having an unpatched windows machine is a way bigger risk than some patch not quite working right and by installing the updates when you are not in front of your machine, you don't risk either interrupting your work for the reboot or remain being unpatched pending the reboot you are postponing.
As the bug report makes a reference to both Netflix and sleeping, I would assume this is a home user, not a corporate one where the patches get reviewed quickly.

yes, but that's so I control the moment of restart since I always have a bunch of transient stuff running, once I get the update alerts I can download & install then slowly wind down transient state until I'm ready to reboot the machine. That may take a day or 2.
