I saw this question on another site. Want your thoughts here, please.

If I still have iOS 13 PB8 can I move to the official when the GM comes out?

I know there is risk of data loss. Is there a way to prevent this when leaving the beta program?
 
Don‘t upgrade to 13.1 beta 1. This has never happened before so we don‘t know if you can just jump on a potential 13.0 GM or have to restore.

Is there any reason to switch over? Will the beta version keep getting updates?
 
I know it’s overkill but for me.

Remove the beta profile, reboot, reboot again in DFU, install public release and set up as a new device

Not sure if „set up as new device“ is so necessary. Doesn’t it only load the apps, app datas and sind from the backup?
