As discussed before your tolerance for risk in stable is *far* higher than mine, if there's any value in doing this at all it's probably within what would get taken but that doesn't mean that it's something that it's sensible to highlight as an important fix like tagging for stable does. It's extremely unclear that it fits the severity criteria that are supposed to be being applied to stable, though obviously the documentation doesn't fit the actual practice these days.
