The whole discussion over "rolling release is stable" never gets concluded because people are not agreeing upon what they talk about. Here are the basic facts that the discussion should be based on:
* "Stable" is not a binary property - it's a scalar. The exact level of stability assumed by the word can be different depending on the context.
* By design, rolling releases are less stable than regular releases. You simply can't beat the stability of something that doesn't change.
* People have different stability requirements. You don't expect something works on your own laptop to work in every occasion.
