Sometimes things are marked experimental not because they are unstable in the sense that they contain a disproportionate ammount of bugs we have yet to notice, but rather are unstable in the sense that their behaviour or API may change in future versions - because the developers havn't quite got a feel for what might be optimal in the majority case yet.
And all the more reason they can't exist in stable. You *CAN'T* change the API of any shipped module, because you are forced to bump the module major if the resulting change is ABI-incompatible. That hurts every third party installed module, not simply the affected module.
