Funnily enough, a lot of people interpreted that as 
"why aren't you running -current on all your machines ?"

which is obviously a different question, with a legitimate different answer.

Most specifically, development happens in -current. If things stop working,
and you only run releases, you will only notice when you update to the next
release...

So, having at least some system where you run -current, preferably in
conditions similar to production machines, is a good idea to make sure you
don't run into nasty surprises. It also helps us *a lot* as developers to
find out about problems very soon after we introduce them...
