This is for Beta testers. So they can rule out which crashes are official ones but, still REALLY!

Eariel19068y@Bobj2008, I think it's easier to spot than just a text or another solution. I worked on an Android app and I changed the icon depending on the build variant. After that little change, testers had a lower rate of misses when reporting if it was a production bug or a staging/development one than when they just had a sign on the screen.

This is not new. Old Longhorn builds had a RSOD instead of a BSOD. It's just a way to distinguish a crash from a Beta and a crash from a "official" build

teoval86468y@milkbytes I know, this joke is based on the news that reported this as a new feature
