You're right - simply imposing that on other repos is not going to solve
anything for them, just like the mere presence of updates-testing does
not magically solve any of our problems.
But: having updates-testing *does* allow us to build a proper testing
workflow for proposed updates. So we're doing that. Hopefully the other
repos can follow suit and benefit from this work.
So yeah, it's not the presence of the -testing repo that helps, it's the
workflow you build around it. I hope that we'll lead by example rather
than demand compliance.
