The so called stable version sometimes hangs when on the battlescape. There are console messages about creating and stunning or killing aliens, so you can be sure you really killed the last alien. They sometimes hide at some spot without doing much.
Please don't be lazy.
But to answer the question you haven't asked: No, it doesn't increase the fire rate but you obviously firing two missiles at a time. The batteries are kinda independent and are at about the same spot. Delaying firing one of them (to get improved fire rate) doesn't sound like a good idea to me if I imagine I'm the base Commander and I want to get that UFO down before it reaches the base.

Bugfix releases are compatible with the main version but you should understand that as the development going we need to save additional data, change the some saved data which means incompatibility. So most probably 2.4 will be incompatible with 2.3.x saves.

Even without automatic defenses it would be nice to have at least some detection, like IR-sensors, so soldiers wouldn't have to peek at every corner.
Yeah I remember the build-for-profit in old X-com
For the sake of realism it should have had a major setback (if ever allowed, not in this case): If you sell powerful weapons not aviable for the rest of the world you may face humans using those same weapons if they turn against you.
Don't shoot the alien-scouts down, let them land and build a base(in this case, the aliens must have enough interest before they want to build a base and the building scout disappears after landing). Then let all the alien-supplies travel without interception. Some weeks later, the nation where the alien base built will tell you the alien base location if its XVI is in a safe level, or if you don't have such patience, just send an interceptor to there oftenly. The alien base will then be shown on the geoscape and you will have an alien base research. Go on whatever you want then. Overkill the ufos will just send you into a dead loop.
On the subject of friendly police and military units on the battlescape:
No.
That is all.

Uuh... Was that sarcasm or is my detector too sensitive?
Anyway, while even a single huge system would make a good budding empire, I don't think they could find that many species in just that area.
The "galactic power can't crush Earth" thing can be solved by reducing the size of the alien empire.
It doesn't have to engulf whole galaxies to be a threat to Earth.
Furthermore, by spreading the aliens out more, or messing with their mode of travel, communications and such, you can make the invasion buildup far more believable.
All the issues with the storyline can be fixed, given some time and creativity.
But will they?
