Quite the opposite, if you release often, you don't have to promise a date, because your users/customers will know another release will be coming.

"Never promise a release date" is much more nerve racking if you don't release early and often. My take is that you never promise a release date, you just release regularly. You can recommend specific releases to your clients, but as long as you don't promise feature X will be here by such and such a date then you can work steadily toward it.
