I feel you are projecting a lot about why or how people would test this distro. Playing with something in a VM or on some laptop for a couple of hours for fun is perfectly fine. Even if you are playing with broken or "not good" software. Also, how polished should something you spend your free time on be before you allow the public to take a look? I have never not tried this distro myself and not read it's documentation. It might claim to do things it shouldn't.
