I don't _push_ for my opinion, I try to bring rationale.

Rationale is to keep something currently-most-stable with LTS
(definition https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS ) while stuff current
unstable/testing with fresh, sometimes bleeding-edge, SW. This way you
provide those who seek stability with more stable things, and those who
look for advanced/feature-rich at expense of quality (you know, you
can't name semi-/immature software as reliable and robust, it just don't
hold argument of stability by definition).

Now, coming back to Transmission, 1.42 looks as stable enough, i.e. good
pair for LTS. While 1.5x looks nice together with fresh & shiny Jaunty
;)
