To be honest I think most people feeling entitled to get into beta wants to play 2.0, not exactly test it and report feedback lol. I honestly think this is why Yoshida said it's not exclusively related to legacy status.
I don't know about others, but I do want to test it and give feedback. 2.0 needs to succede! Its make or break time, and I'm a bit fearful without certain feedback SE might not make the most of this oppertunity for re-launch. I am fairly critical of SE and some of the decisions they make overall. We dont need blind fans going into the beta and blessing everything thats terrible, and cursing everything that will make the game better. And sadly, I can sooooo see this happening. Not to mention JP players not being vocal enough in thier criticism. So while I dont mind a certain amount of random people getting into the beta, I would hope for reasonable, experienced players, that are not fanboys and fangirls to also get into the beta. If 2.0 isnt absolutely perfect, and has issues catering to the casual playerbase, then it will already be in trouble at launch.

I've been plaing this game for a long time now. There are a lot of things that I love about this game, and I see it as having a lot of potential. That being said, I've also had to put up with the many problems that the game has, and somewhat mystifying decisions and directions from the devs. This is obviously my personal opinion, but I have a lot of friends that left because they were not as stubborn as me. Long story short, 2.0 needs to nail it or it will flop.
