With the way Linux is getting worse and worse about this kind of thing, I wonder if we're getting more and more programmers coming over from the Windows world, where they just don't understand what's wrong with that philosophy of computing. That, or it's sabotage.
Why are you being so difficult about this? Are you deliberately trying to not understand? You *don't* have to reboot to do updates. You are completely free to run dnf yourself and do live updates. That's what I do most of the time, but I also tend to reboot after the updates are finished. Just don't complain if something goes wrong when you do live updates instead of doing them offline. As has been explained many times here, it is very difficult to make live updates completely safe unless maybe if you're using something like ostree. There are very few people that think the time and effort to make live updates safe is worth it or even possible. If you're so disturbed by this, then find another OS that will let you do that if such a thing even exists. I can't think of one. Windows, Mac OSX, and Android all reboot to do updates except maybe for some minor ones.
