It depends on how well RELEASE works for you, and how you trade off the benefits of new features against the risk of problems, no? The words that you replied to seem to be CYA verbiage which reflects the fact that STABLE has not always been well tested as a released "product" (sometimes hardly at all) and might occasionally not work well, or not at all. But, as you've probably noticed by now, a common (for good reason) reply to reports of problems is "use the latest STABLE" (sometimes followed by "before reporting problems").
