Re: but

However many peoples expectations would be to get the latest version of Android, not the security patches on the version of Android their device shipped with.

This is the unwritten thing going on here. Many see security updates as a way to force vendors to give them a newer OS, but its far cheaper, easier and lower risk to patch original version.
