Simplification of the support. If developers can't trust you that you
understand that using beta-kind software for urgent purposes is _your_ risk
and you do not know how to find next beta yourself then developers can't trust
you that you do not forget/find install final release complaining about
outdated beta bugs forever.

Of course, it was announced in "What's New" section of proper page. Beta page
contains explanation "The purpose of the expiry is to avoid the developers
being bugged by reports of issues that have long since been fixed."
