They are careful not to mention "security", "bugs", "crashed". Just gentle
words like "reliability" and "performance".
"We released a product with some *known* defects, we have fixed some of those

defects, so have a spin and report them". That's just indication of poor
coding. It's like patching a broken patch, which is almost a monthly
occurrence (making patching slow, incomplete, and prone to breakage).
