More like alpha. Public beta are the normal (non-Insider) “Preview” versions… then they use a staged update deployment for QA.
And yes, MS is saving a lot of money on trained employees by using paying customers as testers.

Alpha is For sure more accurate. But for me that also means big security holes like that should be plugged before insider. I’m also a bit biased being a QA engineer
