I personally don't see a reason why he needed to do that.
If a particular package was a popular one and/or the beta version
changed a lot which might imply a lot of users getting trouble due to
it, then I would agree.

Please notice that 'beta' is not the same for each upstream. There are
indeed packages which are in 'beta' state for the time being -- would
you like all of them to be hard masked? Or maybe you're fine with them
because they don't put 'beta' in their PV?
