+1.

So IMO the thing you are actually testing is the *process* of getting this
into production, not the software itself. Putting it in beta is part of the
process of getting it into production, but as such is useless if it stops
there. Beta is just a place to test the software itself, and the most risky
thing here is not the software itself, but ops/tech-community/core
acceptance of doing things like this. Only getting it to production will
help shake it out, for you and other teams that follow in your wake :)

There's a lot of unknowns along that path, so good luck :)
