It's not the slowness of releases, it's the fact they don't release any stable version with just security fixes. They only make new cumulative releases. Debian's model is to fix a version for their release and do security patches on that, not to push out the latest version.

I would guess this is the same reason why one can't change git repo history without affecting people working with the repo. Merkle tree all over the store.

  Merkle trees don't prohibit release / patch-only branches. Or multiple heads in general.
