Well, yes and no. It is correct that Debian unstable is not supported
by the security team. But this does not mean that it's in a bad shape
security-wise: it's just hard to predict and rely upon. Security fixes
in unstable generally do happen fast (and certainly faster than in
testing since the secure-testing effort faded out), *but* it all
depends on the package maintainers.
Hoping it helps :)
If you are interested to go on with this discussion, then perhaps it
could be moved to a more appropriate place such as the debian-user
mailing-list? (Or it should be clarified how this relates to
Tails development.)
Cheers,
