Nice eye candy and it will impress users coming from the Windows world.
Personally, I think its rather a wasted feature, considering I rarely reboot my desktops, for example when there is a really important kernel update.
With MATE, I could easily reach 6+ months without a single reboot. Unfortunately, cinnamon is not that stable and eventually crashes within 3 months of use. Still, a cool boot process will go unnoticed in my case.

Well, it will work a lot more often than not. With the amount of users Fedora has, the number of failing systems because of files updating under running software becomes non-neglible.

Anyway, a good distro should always allow you to choose when to do a upgrade. A thing not available for the peasants running Windows 10 (there 2 enterprise versions that allows you to choose, but is not what most people use).

I have a new 6TiB hard drive I bought over a month ago and thoroughly tested on a spare machine which is still sitting in its shipping packaging because I keep putting off turning this machine off to install it.
