I thought it self updates already. I remember seeing popups for an update for RTB 4.0

Not if it's a dedicated server (hint: I host 20+ and deal with Ephialtes' stuff)

What does RTB do for dedicated servers anyway?

Servers prefs and an external player list.
At one point it also spammed connections. If it updated itself, I wouldn't have to update everybody's copy of RTB myself.
Ephialtes doesn't give a stuff about server hosters, the most important people of the ingame experience, that's one reason not to get this service.

A regular player hosting a server can just load their dedicated copy in non-dedicated mode to get updates. If they don't have the access to do that, it comes down to the server hoster to deal with that. Automating the update process would have been seriously easy - but I guess you'd just rather blame your own inability on someone else.
