Repeating that is a flashing experience for the minor arches users.

Stabilizing on minor arches this way feels more like a regression, than
that it is an improvement; the promise for a stable experience can't be
fulfilled like that. Searching for broken packages and/or versions and
masking them on the architecture in question could work out better; you
spare out time because you only monitor new versions in general, as
well as attempt to discover breakage instead of discovering stability.
