Unpushing broken or obsolete updates from testing

Why are updates lingering in updates-testing for weeks when:
* they are known broken and/or
* they have already been replaced by a new version, which is already in stable?
IMHO, that's really what the "unpush" option is for. For example, do we really 
need to have that obsolete Thunderbird RC sitting in testing forever when the 
actual release is already out in the stable updates? This also makes it harder 
to track down the legitimate updates which have been sitting in testing for way 
too long.
