You might as well just get rid of your pinning, 500 is the default 
priority and setting Default-Release is raising the priority of testing 
to 990 anyway (`apt policy` should reflect that, otherwise something is 
wrong).

apt_preferences(5) suggests APT treats Default-Release special compared 
to some release with priority 990, so it's still worth using that 
instead of pinning to 990.

Kind regards,
Andrei
