=== Conclusions & Analysis ===
* Uplifts account for ~66% of all fixes going into a given release
* All versions requiring at least one point release occurred when uplifts accounted for 55% or more of the fixes
* All versions requiring at least two point releases occurred when uplifts accounted for ~60% or more of the fixes
* ''Hypothesis'': volume of landings is increasing instability (ie. likelihood of needing a follow-up release)
