Basically true, but if you don't mind the occasional hiccup, you can run it as your daily system. (I do — but I also keep another laptop handy with the latest stable release.) The most likely problems are simply dependencies getting out of sync, which results in a) updates not applying and b) an uninstallable nightly state — not actually a broken system. We're working (slowly — we've got a decade of inertia) on an automated system to move updates which break this consistency to a "side tag", so they can be worked on without breaking the main tree. And possibly in the future we can actually have a similar thing with automated functional testing (but... don't hold your breath). (Also, shout-out to openSUSE, where they're already doing a lot of this.) Of course, as with any "rolling release", you have "oh look, the UI of my software is different today".
