That may be true for some QA, but for autopkgtesting of migration candidates in testing, we need to add the unstable archive. To avoid writing another installer, apt-get is called to install the required packages. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find all the bugs in the QA code yet to prevent unneeded packages from unstable. Not that I expect this specific class to influence autopkgtest results, but we are e.g. currently bitten by cruft for a specific class of packages, so the quality of the unstable archive is causing me brain cell usage.
