Bake time in JDK8 before 7u ?

Most fixes to 7u must go to 8 first. I assume at least part of the reason 
for this is to have fixes "bake" in 8 before coming down into 7u. But I'm 
seeing a lot of pushes to 8 followed (sometimes within minutes) by requests 
to push to 7u. I know there are various schedules to adhere to but it seems 
to me that the requirement to push to 8 before 7u is not serving any purpose 
in these cases.
