I am fully aware of it. But upgrades to the kernel are not the same as newer kernel. And "same" kernel with upgrades means same core packages that block using newer apps.

I wouldn't refer to the 5.5 kernel as 3-4 years old as there are significant backports to the EL5 kernel such that 5.5's kernel is measurably different to 5.0, and even further away from 2.6.18.
