That depends on what level of testing they do, and I'm sure the LTS to
LTS upgrade will be thoroughly tested (as it should be). The default
network upgrade is from non-LTS to next non-LTS and LTS to next LTS
version, therefore the number of people actually modifying their
settings to do a non-LTS to LTS is likely to be low. This activity is
just as important as Ubuntu's own in house testing.
