"Missions Beta"?

Can't really find anything when googleing or searching the boards, probably because posts with "missions" as keywords are ten a penny.

After quite a while of not caring to play ED, I started the launcher to find various 32 and 64 bit versions of the game. Engineers Beta, okay the new stuff. Horizons, yeah, what I play. Elite Dangerous, yeah, the old stuff. Arena, Combat Training, check. But what is "1.6 Missions Beta"?

Is it the missions upgrade from Engineers 2.1 ported to Horizons 1.6, as a feature for all of those that don't have an Engineers account yet? Or do I have to expect to eventually find non-beta 1.6 Missions and 2.1 Engineers and having to choose what I want to play?
 
1.6 is the new [currently beta] build for non-horizons people. So the changes to the look and feel of missions and outfitting but no access to engineers because they are planet-based.

To bring this up anagain: any reason why my freshly downloaded 0.4.5499.0 installer (from the link next to my lifetime expansion pass order) still says "Horizons"? The game certainly has changed looks, so it's not Horizons anymore.
