Yes, it is time to use it by default to expose any remaining bugs
that those with feature.experimental set failed to catch.
Unfortunately, we do not catch issues real users would encounter in
any "opt-in" feature, until it becomes "opt-out" and unconfigured
users are exposed to it.  This is true even in the presense of large
corporations that expose their internal users to versions based on
'next' regularly.
