Serious question here, what happens if Apple removes the lightning or USB-C port and we’re running beta software? I guess we’d all have to send our devices to Apple to revert back or undo a bad update.

Apple Watch and Apple TV 4K are already in the port-less boat.
they would have to implement an untouchable recovery partition that you could boot into similar to MacOS. A basic boot loader to gain wifi access and download a new image.

Usually a public release that doesn't show up for beta users indicates there's a new incoming beta. Seems odd considering that WWDC isn't happening for another 3 weeks, but I guess this is an unusual year.

I hit software update trying to downloading 13.5.1 and instead got 13.5.5 beta available via OTA. 3.15 GB for iPhone 8.
