I believe I already tried to explain this in the past:
This isn't about "every usecase", I am also not claiming that
current FFmpeg git head contains no bugs, I am not even
claiming that current FFmpeg contains no regressions (although
this was often true until a year ago, this sadly has changed
since), I am claiming two other things:
Current FFmpeg git head has more features than any release
and less bugs (although - sadly - different ones).

How do you know that?
(Without spending time for testing that I can spend on fixing issues)

Remember the opus question this week?

No, you misunderstand:
Sadly, I am unable to answer the questions without it;-(
