When in the last 16 years was this 2 year period of running stable? The general state of QA has varied quite a bit over that time. Judging by the open bugs anybody running unstable systemd has been going through a bit of pain in the last week as various scripts/etc are updated to handle the change in install location. Now, it could have been masked initially, but that is really no different except it is a different set of guinea pigs. If unstable never breaks chances are we aren't actually using it for its intended purpose, not that we should be deliberately breaking things. -- Rich
