You’re not wrong. That said my broke ass can’t afford cutting edge hardware so most of the time it doesn’t matter.
When it does, I can usually compensate with either a NixOs profile install, a container of some sort (or Flatpak), or just building the emefferr from source.
On the flip side, reading about an exploited vulnerability in a package and then realizing your machine isn’t affected because Debian has an outdated package in it’s repo
