Yes, the broken decision was to enable updates-testing by default for
prereleases and we should never do this again. It just can't work, because
updates-testing is like the Red Pill: once you're on it, you can't get off
anymore. The fedora-release update which disabled updates-testing broke many
user setups, suddenly unable to install packages due to dependencies.
