I've been using 'testing' rather than a code name for years(1). It's
very rare I've had issues as a direct result of that. Perhaps twice.
Even after a large influx of packages after a freeze ends. For the
most part, problems can be avoided by being selective with upgrades, so
things don't get removed that you want/need. This may mean some
packages are in the upgrade queue for several days, occasionally a week
or two, until the necessary package updates migrate through from Sid.
(1) Ten, at least.
