Although that's quite true, there is one major thing you forget: such products need to be VERY accurate and correct, otherwise they give a
false feeling of security, no matter how essential you may find 'security'.
Despite popular believe, the biggest problem are not virusses or trojans or whatever, but the false security feeling that many people (will) have by installing such beta programs or programs which often give false alerts or don't detect anything.
Because of that, such products (even if they are beta) should not be put in public (aka: no public beta testing either), IMHO.

It should never have been put in public in the first place. It should be private, only accessable to people who really know what they are doing and able to properly beta test it.
