Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported case: install Thunderbird stable, then run winget --upgrade and compare the offered version with the installed channel. Inspect the Thunderbird package data involved in that upgrade decision; done means stable installations are not offered beta updates, while beta installations still receive beta updates.
