I should have specified I meant 10.6.8 I ran it on my main computer until 10.9.2 because of the problems I had experienced with Lion and Mountain Lion on other computers.

Also I think when most people think of Snow Leopard they're thinking of 10.6.8, at least that's the version number you always see get thrown around on the internet.

The last High Sierra update will have less bugs than the next major release too, so I don't think that's really relevant.

Your right but I think the biggest Issue is Apple does much more frequent releases now than when they were doing Snow Leopard. So more iteration hence more stable OS.
