The hope for freeze is 6 months, yes... but not all of that is "hard freeze". Some portion of that time just refers to freezing the toolchain and other essential internals, so in practice you're usually looking at maybe like 3-4 months where your most up-to-date software is being limited to being no newer than 3-4 months old. Which is, in almost all situations... fine ๐.
