It's important to note that this is with the current pressure to keep
up with 6mo cadence.

It doesn't reflect howmany would prefer slower LTS style updates
because that's not an option.

That said I agree focusing on making single cycle upgrades work
soothly is probably effort better spent at this time and once we have
a good story on single cycle live upgrades think about how/if we
extend that to a multi cycle LTS.
