I am sorry because there might have been a misunderstanding here.
When I wrote about the current patch process, I stated that we wanted to make balance patches smaller and more frequent, but mostly unrelated to "feature" patches.
We are actually working in that direction but we are not finished with the task yet (and don't know when we will...); as a result, we are still on the "old pace" for now.
As for the "normal" "feature patches", they will still have approximately the same frequency, and still add features / fix major issues that are not related to balance (and sometimes, contain minor balance fixes in them too).
If all goes well with our testing, a patch is about to hit your server soon...ish
