I think you've misunderstood the point of the post. Of course bugs happen and things go wrong, including on our side. What makes it so much worse is Apple's opaqueness: no communication on bugs, no release schedule, no public plans. So we have no idea what will ship or when or whether catastrophic bugs will go to worldwide release or be fixed. For example how am I supposed to avoid booking a holiday when Safari's stable release happens, when the release date is an Apple secret right up until the very moment it begins its worldwide release? You can't blame me for messing up my planning there, because it's simply not possible, and it can result in a great deal of stress for developers like me.
All other browsers have enough communication and transparency to avoid this. Towards the end of the blog post I outline what Apple need to do - which all other browser makers already do - to make it at least vaguely tolerable to develop for Safari.
