They are less of a nuisance now than last gen, at least on ps4.
My WiiU had an update today, took 10 minutes to install, never told me what it updated, but it made sure to wait for me to press OK before starting to update and again to press OK before restarting. Just do it, no choice anyway.
At least they all download in the background now, no more waiting for that part.
It's a necessary inconvenience nowadays. Consoles have become to complex to wait until the OS is ready before releasing, thus all the extra promised (including previous gen) functionality comes later. Then people grow to expect new features 4 times a year so you got to keep going. It's the new thing, update wars.
