beta phases exist exactly for this reason. wider base of testers.
alpha is, heh, this is what we have so far, more or less stable, go test
it already!
RCs are everything should be stable, that's the final state, last
stage(s) for any bugs or breaks that didn't get caught earlier.
we should not expect "widely tested" new features, never released before
per se.
Yes indeed. But often unexpected side effects and breakages are caught
by various CIs running daily snapshots with OSS projects.
between the limited time induced by the updated policies, the Christmas
break "pls don't", and this, one needs to take holidays to make it
somehow as the time left in a year is low, very low, now.
I hear you, it's just that undoing or amending an RFC is a convoluted
process too, especially very late in the release cycle.
