Not only patches are released to cheer you up, sometimes they are
released to shut you up as well ... Especially if you have been
complaining long enough ...
Not all patches are cumulative (don 't trust Oracle on that one), a bug
identified in 9202 was claimed to be fixed in 9203, but it is still
broken in 9204. Duh !! Either they re-assigned the developer or they
don 't like each other.
My opinion only

My experience, having worked for software vendors, is that you are
correct. Patchsets generally get a "modest " amount of regression
testing, at best. Just to cheer you up, individual patches may receive
practically no regression testing.
