I'm not sure I understand what you mean. What do you mean with "Broken updates
that are actually broken"?
We did think about obsoleting updates when a newer one is created but decided
not to (if for some reasons -1's tests take longer than -2's, the outcome of
-1's tests run may still be of interest for the packager and yum/dnf will anyway
prefer the higher version).

Is the issue about updates lingering in -testing?
