I think the issue is that for things included in the initramfs you really
should test them right away so that if something is broken you notice
right away while there are a limited number of candidates for the
problem. Otherwise things may not break until a kernel update and it
may be difficult to isolate the problem. For testers you need to do
this right away to make sure you are testing the update. Otherwise
you might be testing a different version than you think you are.
dracut and plymouth are programs that also need to be tested this way.
