It's a service pack. Not mandatory. It should do a psconfig automatically. Remember it's the older version that tries to do the psconfig. Should being operative here. It may fail on some boxes.
Bottom line just because Microsoft puts it out on the "other" patch Tuesday, just because it's installed nicely for them, just because ... doesn't mean you need to install it, nor will it be bulletproof.
To me that's still the price I pay for on premise. I control when it gets installed.
