That this is "only" an important bug and any diff need to be approved
by the release managers.

And everytime I wanted to do an update there was a undisclosed security
update already pending in the queue for weeks/months/..., thus uploading
this would have disclosed that (bad) or have a version conflict with that
security update (bad). That's what I meant with "never came to it".

Debian stable is also about keeping the packages without that much changes.

And hell, uploading a build is not as trivial as you might think it is -
you need to babysit all architectures to build it and before they didn't
it won't even appear in proposed-updates.
