@Soebianto Thank you for answering.
Does that mean, Xiaomi takes a dev rom, does tests (the users aswell) and after fixing the reported bugs they publish this rom?
Another question: 9.1.5.0 is the actual stable rom for Mix 2. Next release is 9.1.9.0. Is this rom a later dev than 9.1.5.0 and actually in testing phase or is this again 9.1.5.0 with less bugs?
I am using latest 7.11.16 dev rom by xiaomi.eu. So switching to stable rom won't work really good without wiping data since the latest dev rom is newer than latest stable.
By the way: Wiping data means, pictures, apps and so on will be deleted?
I don't know exactly how Xiaomi do it, but my guess is they take the most stable Dev ROM, almost bug free, then do some testing again by the official beta tester (people who registered as beta tester, not us haha), then releases it as Stable.
I think you can safely dirty-flash (just clear cache / dalvik) 7.11.16 to current latest Stable or next Stable, since the Stable is really new, it's like flashing this week dev rom to a few weeks older dev ROM, i've done this several times without problem, beside both dev ROM and Stable are MIUI 9.1, so logically they must be similar.
I think if you are happy with the current Dev ROM there is no reason to switch to Stable.
