If you are waiting for everyone to find the bugs in 4.3.0 and everyone does that there will be nothing fixed for you ... It's always a good idea to load up the code and give it a test.
Considering code quality in 4.2.1 (two forwarding bugs including one CEF bug), I'd say it's dubious to go for any .0 or .1 in any near future if one values network stability.
I wish they started doing some kind of staggered release where new hw was introduced in software that didn't have a lot of other features at the same time. If one wanted to run RSP440 immediately, there was no choice but run software with a lot of other new features as well.
But I guess it's good to go for .2 or .3 for any new major hardware release introduced in .0, because then there will have been other people living through 6-9 months of burn-in on the new software (because they wanted the new hw immediately) so in .2 a lot of things will have been fixed.
