Problem with skipping updates is that you do not know what you are missing.
Tesla does not itemize all the changes that are included in every update, so you are kinda blind as to take the update or to pass.
I have faith in Tesla, and am prone to agree to every enhancement as soon as I am notified.
If you do not update, of course it is all on you. While the concequences are unknown, each owner gets to make their own decisions.
At some point, not doing an update may cause you unintended concequences.
This issue also came up with computer systems. Sometimes the latest updates would unlease issues. Due to this, many choose to wait until a new OS had some time to get the bugs worked out. People would skip the updates they worried about, and wait for a more stable release to come along.
I have joyfully watched as my Model X has gotten better and better with every update. I also do not enjoy the nags, but noticed that far fewer autopilot accidents have made the news. Tesla became aware that owners were becoming very lax with autopilot engaged. The people themselves became disengaged. The safest vehicle needs the autopilot to be backed up with a skilled, alert and engaged human pilot behind the wheel. The videos of owners sitting in their back seats could not be ignored.
