There's no differences between the two, for our purposes in this
case. Rule of thumb is the same as definition in this context, and
both need to be good. Otherwise, we will either release 25.2 that
won't be an improvement wrt 25.1, or will waste a lot of time and
energy arguing just what changes to commit to the release branch.
