Can anyone explain channels?

Hi


I think the different channels are different levels of OS development (such in any Linux). "Stable channel" only takes packages that are tested and will not break the system. "Development channel" I understand that are packages being tested but can potentially break the system or fail in any sense. What are the others?

Can anyone correct me and explain better what are Stable, edge, development, release candidate

Why If I select development, I am stuck in stable? is there any reason why I cannot switch? maybe because I updated the phone in stable (currently in version 4)?

Why when I go to channels windows I have several options for each? is this a bug? or are they different? (for example 'stable is in the list 3 times)

Any input will be appreciated!
Thanks
