    Assuming any dynamically loaded module will fail, why does KernelCare exist and why is it used so prevalently in web hosting environments? It costs money, so buying it when it doesn’t work seems odd.

      Very valuable high uptime servers exist but they take care, as in professional admins, to maintain it.

      None of this applies to Arch or home users. You get full kernel updates and no old modules are kept. You reboot.

      Other distros like Fedora keep old versions around but you still have to reboot to get updates.
