Warnings about the current development version are greatly exaggerated

[Matthias Koeppe]

https://www.sagemath.org/download-latest.html shows a very scary warning "Unstable release for development only. Do not use for your every day work."

Would there be objections to toning this down a bit?

This is sage-devel, most people here eat sage unstable for breakfast, may be ask in sage-support? But otherwise, yes it is overly scary. It may have been justified 10 years ago but not so much now.
