That makes the push process much more fragile/difficult. If you use a
updates-testing build of package A, and package B (that depends on
package A) gets rebuilt, then you may have a package B that can't be
pushed to stable until package A gets pushed. What if there's a
security update on package B that needs to go to stable ASAP?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
