Every update will break something somewhere. Windows 10 is used so widely and on so many hardware configurations it's literally impossible to test.

For the odd times I use a Windows partition, I've never experienced a BSoD from regular use or updates. I believe this is mostly a thing that's been happening since years ago actually, mainly from these security patches causing anticheat and AV software to index and manually modify kernel data structures based on memory addresses which change suddenly after a lot of things get patched which causes the BSoDs, but this speaks of other underlying issues with the codebase that fall outside the scope of these problems.
