What is the point of posting so many identical stories? more ad impressions? Just combine them all into one.
Primary its for breaking out separate discussions related to each OS beta release. It helps no one here in the forums to discuss all OS betas (iOS/IPadOS/MacOS/tvOS,watchOS) various issues, bugs, feature changes in one common thread. Most of the people interacting are devs or Public beta testers. Some post questions for additional info.

MacRumors also breaks them out for maintaining higher visibility on news web sites, such as google news.
