Not strictly, as I understand it. Change needs to land in *some* live
branch, but that could be dev - although it'll usually be stable, since
it makes little sense to cherry-pick back to LTS a change not also worth
making in stable. Once it's landed, it can be cherry-picked back to any
LTS. When it is, though, it can be cherry-picked back to several LTS
branches at the same time (just as, in Jedrzej's model, we would do to
all branches other than dev).
