The LTS release model is created for:
>servers - to make sure software library APIs don't change and developers don't have to refactor code all the time.
>IoT devices, public computers, etc - to make sure technicians don't have to fuck around with them every now and then.
>work machines - to make sure sysadmins don't have to troubleshoot shit on a monthly basis.
The whole point of Debian, Ubuntu and other LTS distros is to never change. So, "no new features" is the whole point of them.
Most people don't want to be stuck on software that's years out of date. So, on your personal computer you probably don't want this and you probably wouldn't use an LTS distro.
However,
>Fedora
It gets updates constantly. It only gets a "major release" every 6 months or so. But, for example, KDE Plasma 6.4 was available pretty much on day 1. It's basically a rolling release distro which just creates a versioned release every 6 months. So it's perfectly fine on desktop.
