Continuous updates could be disastrous for how-to books or any kind of technical learning manual. It says one thing today, but something different when I look at it tomorrow? How is one supposed to follow the directions if they’re changing?

Fixed editions are nice because you get the big update all at once; it’s planned for and expected.
