This is a very sane advice. I also started with a stable install, but after some time I decided I can handle testing. The problem is not that it's hard to run testing because it breaks, it is just a bit more likely to break in which case it is good to have some experience sorting out the debris. For unstable, this is probably even more true.

This is being said more often, but simply not true: http://secure-testing-master.debian.net/I would say that the problem with testing is more that it does not get immediately the security patrch that Sid and stable gets, since they wait before being committed from sid to testing.
Yup. But experimental is not a distribution. It is just a staging for sid, and hence not complete and unusable by itself.(ANd if I remember there is an "exeprimental" also)
