That is not by design, but by largely unavoidable consequence, and so a Debian stable release is not considered a "beta" ion any respect. There will never be as diverse a user base for a testing release as there will be for a stable release. Some people have for this reason chosen to wait for "first update" of software releases as long as there has been software, far previous to the existence of Debian. Obviously you can't just not release it as you will still never get the desired amount of testing, nor know what that desired level actually is (an unknown unknown).
