No. Enabling experimental in your sources.list doesn't actually change
anything. You have to explicitly request installing a given package
from
experimental to pull it from experimental, and only that will be
getting
updated from experimental, you won't inadvertently pull other packages
from experimental.
Well, you have to inspect each package to decide if it is a
only-uploaded-because-freeze or actually an experimental release. You
don't get the guarantees of unstable - at least the maintainer thinks
it is ready for a release.
