Hi,

a last comment related to this topic by me.

Developers are human, so they can make mistakes. OTOH, they are a group
of people and a group of people should develop procedures so as not to
repeatedly make the same gross mistake of introducing something
unfinished into production systems.

However, a user is only human and should therefore be allowed human
frustration when repeated unnecessary influential errors occur.

Again, a distribution isn't a birthday present, it's part of an
infrastructure of whatever design.

It makes a difference whether the birthday car is just the wrong color
or whether the voluntary fire brigade makes fatal mistakes during a
rescue operation.

A Linux distribution is neither a birthday present nor the volunteer
fire brigade, but it is more comparable to the volunteer fire brigade
than to a birthday present in terms of its importance and the inherent
responsibility.

Regards,
Ralf
