We are learning not to do the same mistakes all over again ☺

Now it could, I guess, be argued, that gcc has a long history of not having egregious failure modes we are learning from, and should be allowed to land later.  OTOH there is also, IIRC, a history of having to do a second (full or partial) or even a third rebuild due to necessary gcc bug fixes, and landing the .0 version at the time we ship Beta is basically an explicit bet that there will be no such bug in .0, or we are slipping.
