The individual metrics need to be aggregated to a score but fine
tuning that score algorithm is more work than most people want to do on
packages which are already uninteresting.
What has happened in the past is that a BSP close to a release has had
a
oolchain changes.
Clearer records exist at ci.debian.net.

ady shows you which packages are to be brought in as Recommends
on every invocation and unless you use the -y option you get the
option to quit. You can already choose to quit and call apt with the
--no-install-recommends option for this specific invocation of apt.

able. That's why the advice is to move this box
to stable - ask for backports of any packages which need updates from
testing.
You have four years to decide whether to replace this hardware or
continue running jessie without support.
