They are still going through the gitian build process. 0.16.3 was the first one to be released so that is the one that everyone is being recommended to upgrade to. Regardless, you should upgrade to a patched version, whether that is 0.14.3, 0.15.2, or 0.16.3. It is not misinformation that everybody must upgrade.
