FWIW, I've never heard this. The major complaints I hear about Debian is that dpkg is buggy, and that packages in unstable occassionally suck. YMM, and obviously does, V. C'est la vie. Also, FWIW, my major complaint about the release process is that we spend far too much time in `freeze'. Shortening the freeze is one way to fix this, although I, personally, don't think any of this `just wait until next time!' is going to actually help: we tried that for slink, and slink's freeze took a month or so longer than hamm's. I much more for spending a good six or eight months without even *considering* freezing, personally. Again, YMMV. After all, people who want frequent releases can point Apt at unstable, for a new release every day.
