I think you really have to differentiate what kind of use you are talking about. I have the feeling you are only/mostly looking at the desktop segment. For desktops I kind of agree with you. On a desktop I always want to have the "new and fancy" and I run unstable on my desktops (the other reason is to help find bugs). On the other hand I also maintain a bunch of servers and I would not want to run testing on them. I really like stable for servers, as I have an extremely solid system which doesn't give me much work, except installing security upgrades. When etch comes out I will upgrade those servers to etch and then I don't have to do much work on them for quite some time till the next release comes out.
