I don't think anyone would really describe the state of rawhide post-freeze as "development" - it ends up as a staging ground for things that can't be landed in the branched release, but there's certainly no expectation that it's a coherent release during that time. Whether there *should* be is a great question, and I'd agree that it's probably not very clear to an external observer what the expected behaviour of rawhide is at any given point in time.
