If the game is released a 'pre-gold/beta-plus' preview edition, then the point is moot. Iit's up to Markus if he feels like it or not. And either way, there is a fraction of the population who are going to take affront anyway.
To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln with liberites- You can please some of the people all of the time, and none of the people some of the time, but you can't please all the people all of the time.
As long as he has made no claims on a full release date and he does not claim that the HTH sans release is the full release version, there is no issue and this would fall under the heading programmer priviledge. A favour to a significant population of OOTP players but a disfavour to no one.
