This has only officially been built-in since last year with ST3 which took an age to come out of beta.

I've been using ST3 for like 5 years (in beta) and it was just as stable as the "stable" release.

There was absolutely no reason to use ST3 for the past 3 years if you already used ST/ST2.

That was already the case for ST2, which was stable for years before it officially announced it was "stable".

Stable/unstable for STx are just labels, they don't actually reflect the state of stability. Plus all the real work (new plugins, etc) happened on the "beta" ST3 side for years...
