One can be a purist and say yes.. however I think that Stable is
a good compromise between newer/improved/more secure code and
having something which is really "stable" and that always
compiles.

Moreover, as the number of machines that you want to keep stable
increases, it may be a good idea to keep them to the same level.
This way you don't end up with surprises.
