Imho it is more a perversion of how it is meant to be. This package was
tested before it went to updates-testing and therefore went straight to
stable. But the majority of packages goes to updates-testing and is not
tested by someone else but the maintainer/does not get any karma, but
still is pushed to stable after some time.
