The customer is likely to update it anyway, or think they are not getting the newest and shinyest operating system otherwise. LTS is arguably better for servers or corporate desktop rollouts (if you don't have landscape or any management tools) but for sellability to geeks and others go for new and shiny. If you can launch on April 23rd with Jauny pre-installed you might get a burst of interest. (was thinking of doing that myself)
