I would guess there's probably a threshold of even known issues/regressions below which it's still useful in enough cases to be worthwhile in terms of larger scale testing of everything else. As long as notes on known issues (and esp. regressions) are available without downloading the whole source or isos, it's up to whoever contemplates installing it to decide if it's likely to be useful to them.
