No, that is not the case, and Bruno's inference wasn't correct. The
update is intended to be safe for all users once it passed testing. The
only reason mdadm put detailed testing information for proven testers in
its update text is because the maintainer wanted to provide that
information to make sure the update was properly tested. Doing so in the
update description wasn't the ideal way as it leads to this discussion,
but the intent was good.
