Exactly - you _can't_ say anything about the reliability of a new 
design.   I've had 2.4 kernels with uptimes of over 4 years.  What are 
the odds that you are really going to match that - or how many attempts 
will it take?   New isn't necessarily bad, but untested is very likely 
not as good as tested and proven.
