Ehhh. The variable "ldc-beta" would have existed for 5 days and was in no Guix release - not sure anyone saw it. But we can do the latter so that people could rely on ldc-beta being the newest non-release ldc (if we ever packaged another ldc beta release or even git commit), kinda like guix-devel (corresponding to ldc-beta) vs. guix (corresponding to ldc). Sure.
