Gamer_62 pretty much what others have said. Reason for this release was to test some critical bugs, that may result in corrupted character file, corrupted chunks etc. It's because the core features are messing around with the games primary C# code, it's not some simple XML edits that were done here.
Besides 2.0 experimental release doesn't have any custom weapons, resource items, changes to perks/skills, no custom blocks, none of that (only a handful of 10 or so items for testing). It's [SIZE=15.68px]primary[/SIZE] to test how good my programming skills are in changing major aspects of the game - how vehicle fuel systems work, how ammo works, how crafting works and how encumbrance changes to inventory work, etc. Those are all under the hood things, that you wouldn't normally see or appreciate as a regular player, but if something breaks and you have to reinstall the whole game, wipe configuration data in windows registry or simply delete save files, you wouldn't like it no single bit.
As for pandemic stuff with covid, i'm jobless and people on patreon are the only income for me right now and I'm grateful for their support, some of those people have been supporting me through thick and thing over 2 years, sorry if that makes you feel salty, that they got the chance to test it a bit earlier than others.
