 I do know that MS prefers to do extensive testing on patches.
ms04-015 , i was told, had to go through over 200 differing
infrastructure / product / implimentation testings before release.
i am sure some of these test are done for large corps to ensure
no breakage across a multitude of architectures, etc. A patch
may work properly on 99% of everything, but its that 1% they
focus on before formal release. ( esp if that is a large enterprise )
