We didn't (and still don't) have any release criterion which says that this situation should not occur. Fortunately, in the F33 Beta case, we managed to ship a fixed version of Firefox in time, and so we didn't really need to make a decision back then.
My recollection is the older Firefox did ship on beta media. There
wasn't a newer successfully built Firefox still.
Perhaps you're right and the older FF was on media, and the newer FF was just in updates. It doesn't really matter much, it's just an example of a potential issue.
But yeah, I support moving the criterion to beta. The language says
"must be fixed or documented" - who decides which?
See this footnote under the criterion:
"Fixed or documented?
If the issue is sufficiently serious, we may consider that documenting it is not sufficient and it must be fixed. This is a subjective determination that will be made at blocker review or Go/No-Go meetings."

It reads like there
are up to three decisions to make for this criterion: 1) is it a
blocker? 2) should it be documented or fixed for beta? 3) should it be
documented or fixed for final?
Yes, that sounds right. We can for example decide that it's sufficient to have it documented for Beta, but it needs to be fixed for Final.
