Regardless of what you want to call it, it is pretty obvious that it is not a release candidate version.

Alpha usually means there is stuff not yet incorporated (seems fitting), beta usually means all the stuff (or almost all of it) is there, but lacks polishing/testing. There is no standard convention for these terms, so everone uses them a bit differently.

Most importantly, they can name it whatever they want, it doesn't change the fact that it is not ready for prime time yet, as they stated in the post.
