Finished product, such as "Debian stable"? They essentially freeze for 2
years when they reached a working state without bug fixes (except for
security ones) while continuing Development. Does it mean that Debian
stable is bug free? I can make phone calls with the old shr-t snapshot,
something that I currently cannot do with neither current SHR-T not
SHR-U.

Increasing the time between updates would be no guarantee that an
upgrade does not break your phone (as happened with my latest shr-T
update). Also, people start pushing me for updates when I have not
updated shr-T for one week, asking for bug fixes.
