I have a similar attitude. At the end of the day, MacOS updates have zero chance of helping me get work done faster, yet they have low but non-trivial chance of halting progress on work for a few hours due to obscure issues. There just seems no upside to upgrading - I just wait until either I'm forced to or starting a completely new project just to pay off a tech debt of sorts. I'll caveat this by saying I don't work in the Apple ecosystem so don't have any dependencies there, the tools I run are orthogonal to MacOS specific features, so I don't really care about them per se.
