Yes there is no sense going back now you will find unlike running the stable which can go weeks at a time without an update. It only really gets security updates and things like that unless the backports are enabled to get some newer software that from time to time is uploaded there too. That the unstable will get updated more often as the new packages are uploaded and really you are better letting others run into the problems with it so they get solved by running the testing. As mentioned earlier. It is literally only days between them before the packages uploaded to the unstable get migrated to the testing once no problems are reported in them.
Yeah, I realise that, but I'm a bit uncertain about changing it back to stable and running an upgrade when it has been running unstable, which is why I mentioned that perhaps I should just re-install it and keep it on stable. On the other hand, since it's been running like this for a long time now, and only getting debian package upgrades during minor releases, maybe I'm running a fairly stable state machine right now after all. I have a laptop that is in a similar state, I think I will give that one a shot and see if making the same changes and switching it to stable will break anything during the upgrade, since it's not the end of the world if I need to re-install that one.
