Because?
Or you could use the beta, which is what will ultimately be 78.0.

I plan to post the candidate build link next week in tb-planning, of all goes well. But it might not be the build we ultimately ship

I did not know Thunderbird set up a profile on installation. I have always created one when testing a release candidate.

If I didn't have many versions installed Thunderbird (only one installation) would create one when started.

You probably have a profile Thunderbird 78.0b4 can't use and do to the dedicated profile per installation feature need to create one for the 78.0b4.

Anyone can participate in the "official" beta channel - which is not just for support.
