You should learn to use unambiguous words then. Where I get that from
is in this quote:
"No, I'm doing exactly as the policy says, patch current stable version."

To me "current stable version" = whatever is available upstream as the
current stable version (=bugfixrelease) of the codeline that is in the
distro.
If distro has shipped 1.3.2 initially, and 1.3.4 is available in the
meantime, then "current stable" is 1.3.4 in my world, not 1.3.2.
