Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Among these admins, some have dozens, and occasionally hundreds or
 thousands of sites. Are we sure we want to risk that emails with Wordpress
 in them get caught by ISPs as spam?

 I'm sure sploggers, for instance, do not upgrade. They generally have a
 few thousand sites. Having them receive as many emails on every WP update
 will not help, and I'd guess they run the majority of the very old sites
 that appear in the WP stats.
