Really? 20% actually sounds low to me.
Even in highly restricted environments like iOS or ChromeOS, forced updates can introduce issues. If nothing else, newer OS versions could break compatibility with existing apps, which may stop working if their developers don't update them.
In traditional desktop OSes things are even more prone to breaking. Consider just the web browser alone, and the myriad of extensions users could have installed. Any combination of these can cause issues that interrupt people's work. Every web site is maintained differently, has its own very complex tech stack and infrastructure it depends on, any of which can fail at anytime. Hell, we're all affected when GitHub is down, and that happens pretty regularly.
