If you use the GPU just as a video out, sure, you probably don’t need most updates, but for gaming (and this is a pcgaming community) you probably want to update regularly, since some games require the latest version or to improve game performance.
Maybe, if you had an Intel card with immature drivers a few years ago (they’re better now, I heard), or you’re the kind of person who makes bragging about those marginal gains your whole personality. Otherwise, being on the latest driver isn’t necessary even for gaming. Like, you’re not wrong but it also isn’t that big a deal.
My comment was meant ironically.
