Actually, I've tried -SECURITY ... my servers crashed more often :)  And
have you ever tried to get someone to investigate/fix something that is
considered a 'dead line'?  The thing with -SECURITY is that its exactly
that ... no bug fixes go into it, only critical security stuff ... so, if
I were to report a bug on -SECURITY, it would most likely get ignored,
since there is a very good chance that its already fixed in -STABLE, but
nobody is going to back-patch it ...
