"a rock-solid stable base yet still have easy access to cutting-edge packages ..." This sounds really nice in theory and I hope they can pull it of, but I can't see how that can work.

Some insight into the idea behind Bedrock can be found in arecent reddit comment[1] by the author.

I guess they mean: system packages which are stable, but apps that are bleeding-edge.

Not at all. Watch the video, it gives a pretty good demonstration of what it does:

And I still can't see how that would work. Some apps need the latest libraries latest kernel or something, so without "bleeding edge" system core some apps won't even run. There are always workarounds to that but those cause more harm than good.

Still I will keep an eye on Bedrock hoping they come up with something cool.
