In fairness, nobody ever "promises", you just make the best guess you can under the circumstances. The problem here, I think, was that there never was a formal announcement that 7.5 was becoming something completely different; I think the change of plans just sort of oozed out into the development community.
If you look at the 7.5 branch activity, the largest number of changes (albeit the smallest ones) happened between rc3 and rc4, which makes sense for a stable release but not for 7.5 as it was originally planned.
