Hubris.

How can you declare something "stable" if you don't perpetually run tests to verify it is indeed "stable"?

And to state the obvious: certain bugs will lead to instability, non-deterministic, and undefined behavior - that's the very nature of things breaking down.

When Debian says "stable" they mean "we don't upgrade the software significantly". Ie, the system doesn't significantly change.

Of course that means it's about as stable as in not crashing as any other distro.
