Hi,

I think such a file name is correct. Because such a file name can help us distinguish the version of the Edge installation package (Beta, Dev, Canary or official version); because such a file name can avoid causing trouble to users; because such a file name can help us avoid installing ourselves Unneeded Edge version.

All in all, I think this is correct.
