their should be more consentaneity on whether or not beta content is going to be added

the dev's have stated that beta content won't be added to bee yet there are 3 items and one planed item(the world portal door) that are from early versions of portal 2.

I don't even know if Bee wants the world portal door or not because the statements on it have been conflicting.
on one hand no because it's unfinished beta content but on the other hand yes because it's planed to be readded?

I'd say just to be more specific as there are normally better reasons for these features not to be added.

the F-stop camera doesn't fit the scope of Bee and need a whole new system in place.(witch means playtesting, coding, bug fixing, etc.)
hover turrets suck and have not been proven to work in test chambers and would need to be remade.
beta styles don't fit the scope of Bee and have so many different versions.
nova's prospekt is really 3 different styles nova's prospekt, nova's sewers and nova's warehouse.
if you look closer at development you will see that nova's warehouse is really 9+(did not count every version) different styles.
11+ styles for 1 era of development.

I get why most beta features aren't going to be added as most of them were cut for a reason and would need to be rebuilt form the ground up.
I think it would be better to put something better detailing the scope and goal of the project.

Reflection gel and diversity vents were added really early on in BEE's history before there were really any kind of guidelines on what items to include. Futbols were added later, but they're used somewhat differently from their original purpose - essentially as a variant of cubes that can't be set down, rather than a versus mode thing or whatever. World portal doors aren't really beta content, they're just regular chamber doors with world portals behind them (to allow connecting distant rooms, getting around puzzlemaker size limits, etc). The fact that valve did the same thing in the beta isn't really relevant.

The "no beta content" rule is just a general guideline to stop people asking for things like f-stop, if something has considerable puzzle use or utility and the assets/code for it are in the game, then we might add it anyway.

ah ok that makes sense.
I don't think Reflection gel and diversity vents would be added in modern Bee as they are hard to work with.
I do think the football is a really good item.
