If we did that, as soon as 12.1 came out, we would have stranded the users of
pkg on 12.0 (you can't assume you can go downwards).

Or, we could buy enough hardware to have every single branch built -- plus,
enough people to look after the build results.  (disclaimer: I am one of the
people that looks after the build results)

No, it can't be farmed out to virtual instances somewhere, due to security
implications.

tl:dr; some thought has actually gone into these decisions.  This is the one
rare case where we've been bitten.
