I don't think it is what it sounds like - STABLE branches are
development branches with stable binary interfaces. It's the security
branches that are intended for production use.

It's reasonable for people who update and build their own software image to do some level of qualification of the result, before deploying this to production systems. Whether you track -STABLE or the security branch for your initial release ought to be determined more by your preferences to minimize the scope of OS updates versus your desire for relevant new functionality.
