S-D-C is borked - it's useless to create live USB's of either older or newer versions of Ubuntu than the version you're running S-D-C on. And the proposed fix that made it into Vivid and got backported into Utopic resulted in S-D-C being able to only produce live USB's of the same architecture.
My comment:
This is not only a corner case, it is a severe bug. But the main problem is not a few single bugs, red or grey (at the iso qa tracker), but the never ending stream of bugs that is affecting this poor piece of software.
