I agree with you, vendors (I am one myself) should within a reasonable
amount of time apply updates and patches and test them to make sure they are
ok.
But you want to remain supported and its fair on the vendors to say you
will run at the recommended level or cannot guarantee it will work properly
Just push hard on the vendors and say you are repsonsible if my data gets
hacked into. Might push them into gear then
