What I meant was that the "unstable" version is a little bit too
"experimental" for me. Recovery from a broken grub2 upgrade can be
_pretty_ difficult. This means there is a high risk for doing
grub2 upgrades, even if the code itself is very stable.

IMHO the high risk should be reduced by better testing in the
"experimental" branch, before a new version is promoted to
"unstable".
