Funny in that in your earlier post that seemed to be exactly what was bothering you

It can help

But when people expect a 'beta' patch to be 'bug free' and/or not 'change' anything to the point that they get so upset that they fall to the floor in the fetal position as if 1C touched them in their NO NO place.. Well that is not helpful

Not fact

Your opinion

As I asked someone else in an earlier post

Can you point to something advertised on the side of the box that is NOT provided? Something real like "15 FLYABLE AIRCRAFT" when there is only 10 flyable, and not something subjective/debatable like "MOST REALISTIC FLIGHT MODEL"

Because I have looked and I don't see anything missing

And if you were expecting a 'bug free' software product on DAY ONE

Well that is another thread in and of itself that would be along the same lines of not understanding what 'beta' means, but more along the lines of 'unrealistic expectations'

If I had to guess it might have something to do with RoF charging $ for add ons

Once again you have proved you do not understand what 'beta' means and that you have not concept of what goes into software development

Best way to avoid it is for people who don't understand the what 'beta' means and the concept of beta testing is for them to not download 'BETA' patches

It really is that simple
