Is there any reason not to bump my Server to direwolf20 v5?

So I did some test runs last night copying my server over and trying out a migration from v4 to v5. Everything worked fine, and I did some random stuff with the updated stuff to check if there were any obvious crashers.

Should I just bump my server, or is there a compelling reason to hold on v4 awhile longer? The only reason I ask is that I've noticed that swapping between v4 and v5 on the FTB launcher has a small chance to absolutely hose FTB (one of my machines just cannot launch FTB anymore), so I definitely don't want to go back and forth between the two if I encounter anything ugly.

Are you sure v5 if recommended? I was running it last night and went to make RP tubes and couldn't. There wasn't even a recipe for brass. I switchedit back to recommended this morning and it loaded v4, which had everything for brass working fine.

Just because the recipes weren't there in NEI doesn't mean they're not included. You should still be able to craft them, just look the recipes up online. I had to do that for stone jacketed wires yesterday. No recipe, but still craftable.

I did try to make them. I knew the recipes. I didn't try looking them up until after I couldn't make brass.
I was just going to go back to v4 last night but couldn't download. This morning when I switched the launcher back to recommended, it downloaded v4.

Since I built the Iron Guardian Golems ( a v5 addition in Thaumcraft 3.02) I'm assuming I am not going to be able to go back v4. Hopefully v5 will be officially recommended soon.
