As you will see from the (very) long discussion that you are about to
read, there has to be a compromise.  As it was, the release process was
too long, not too short.

Yes, we would like to get more testers pre-release, but that seems to
be more easily said than done.  Ideas appreciated.

You will also see in the thread that:

 - it is not possible to release bug-free code, and in fact

 - it is not possible to release code with no regressions whatsoever

if you are to ever release anything at all.

To summarize: yes, we do care: and yes, these are classical software
engineering problems that can only be dealt with, not solved completely.
