midnightflash proposed the following answer:
It's just another point of view...

If there is a let's call error or glitch in a Distri... and you know about that one... it's some kind of OK, because you can rely on that bug. You might have heard the saying: "It's not a bug, it's a feature!"
In enterprise-editions mainly for servers this is really OK!!! Beleave me.
You know about the glitch... you know how to handle it. Imagine if you did this "workaround" and then comes an update and the workaround is not working anymore... instead you have a broken server inside the Internet.

But I indeed don't see the benefits for a desktop-mainstream-distro like
Ubuntu. Those strict "feature-freezes" are really annoying. No... not
for the 18-month-support-versions.

They could split this for the LTS-ones maybe? Amight be a thing for
brainstorm...
