Even if 100% of authors kept their addon versions perfectly tracked and updated on all clients, there'd still be issues to consider when updating.

I use an email system of updating.
Unless my UI is blowing multi colored chunks over my screen , i don't update.
I glance at the emails for a few select addons but for the most part it can go from anywhere from a week to a month between my addon updates.
I also sit on a few IRC channels where the repo report bots post to. If I see something come up that looks vitally important I'll update.
Different strokes for different folks
