Well, this is the marketing list :-)

OK, but that raises the question then of whether we should even offer it 
prominently on the download page, or as the first option. In your view, 
should we then offer the "branch formerly known as still" first?

Sure, but it is, which is why we get questions and want to improve the 
wording. Many people don't know what a "technology enthusiast" is, for 
instance, or have a very different interpretation of it.

We already encourage (technically-minded) users to help test during the 
development cycle: alpha, beta, release candidates etc. So we have to be 
careful, not that we imply: Thanks for helping to test all during the 
development cycle and RCs! But even though we've released it, it's still 
not ready and needs more testing.
