This is indeed Debian’s problem and needs discussion, but the roots lie
in upstreams. It mostly comes down to the fact that upstreams of a
growing number of projects are not able to synchronize their releases so
that a single set of versions can all work together.

Personally I think the best way to alleviate that problem would be to
reduce the set of packages that are included in a stable release (and
that also means in testing). But that is a high price to pay for the
sole benefit of making releases easier.
