What does the release cadence have to do with that?

A rolling release Linux distribution continuously provides updates as they become available, without the need for an OS re-installation to get the latest released version.

You can update a standard release distribution just fine, no need to reinstall anything. It does basically the same thing as a rolling release, just not as often and more packages at once.
