• Quality of software is nowadays presumed irrelevant. Check how often Linux, Firefox, Chromium, and systemd are released. They abandon the notion of proper and prolonged quality control and then long-term support that makes maintenance sustainable (like ESR/LTS). Beta and Alpha might last under a week.
