Debian testing doesn't get timely security updates so it's inappropriate to use on production servers.

I know. However, back then testing also was getting security fixes with 24h deadline but, since Debian got much bigger, it became unfeasible and abandoned, no biggie.

I always deploy current stable to any production server and I keep my desktop systems in rolling testing.
