It's the other way around. Trying to search for problems with Stable is more difficult because potential fixes require things your OS doesn't have yet.
I haven't much had this problem with Debian Stable.
For awhile, there would be a thing with people using, say, JS libraries, and they'd want to Stack Overflow copy&paste something. But the more reckless of those people just ended up bypassing Debian with NPM or some other language-specific package manager. And less-reckless people can decide when they can just use Debian or have to pull select bits of software some other way.
