That's fair. I'd only consider it appropriate if the experimental buildding really is pretty different to unstable buildding -- the level I'm thinking of is that an experimental build gets done by sending a signed email to the buildd system telling it what you want built, and what (if any) .debs you want it to select from experimental as part of the build process. But anything that people feel able to implement is good as far as I'm concerned.
