Given that upgrading is not always painless, knowing if a currently-used version is secure for a specific use case is still valuable as it can help defer non-essential upgrades. That being said, I will put your talk onto my backlog and honestly look forward to watching it.
Upgrading your kernel should _always_ be painless. Unless you depend on out-of-tree changes, and if so, well, that's your fault for trusting them, nothing the kernel community can do about them obviously.

The kernel itself, yes. I was referring to rebooting the system to run the new kernel. A lot easier now that most machines and services are cattle, but still. Also, just because it's painless does not mean everyone wants to upgrade immediately if everything's running nicely.

That's pretty foolish, if everything is "running nicely", you are still "vulnerable to all public bugs that have been fixed", so odds are "running nicely" isn't really happening if you are connected to the world in any way :)
