Comment (by johnbillion):

 Ah I see. I hadn't considered beta and RC for point releases.

 So I guess my question is, outside of a beta or RC window (ie. when there
 is a higher version stable available), is there no way to fetch an older
 beta or RC?

 What I am aiming to do is allow WP-CLI to facilitate an installation being
 on a beta or RC channel. As we're not currently within a beta or RC window
 I'm unable to get a response from the w.org API which includes a beta or
 RC offer.
