Because of this: upgrades are offline and might require taking hours of downtime.
As long as PosthgreSQL insists on painful offline upgrades short release cycles and automatic upgrades are just not feasible. But there's nothing fundamental in that requirement: most DBMS systems out there somehow manage to support online upgrades, PostgreSQL is rare exception.
