Testing doesn't have security support (and since neither the security team nor 
maintainers can upload to it, it's the most problematic choice from a security 
support perspective).  I don't think that's suitable to recommend to end users 
of any sort.

If the label Testing scares some users off to Stable, then I think it's working.
