As jeb made an update to the pre release I can't help but feel that this is the actual 1.8 that they were going to release, but then decided to call it a pre release so people use that as an excuse instead of blaming them for releasing a buggy as crap 1.8 that they have been waiting for for months. Does anyone else feel this way?

No. It's because actual 1.8 testers leaked it when they weren't supposed to, so Jeb just put out a link himself and let people test it and report bugs, since a lot of people would be playing the leak anyways. Might as well take advantage and make the actual 1.8 release more solid than it would have been by having more people test it.
1.8 Was very buggy and it has been a very large update the pre-release was in order so that people could be able to experience it as well as the testers and give them time to fix the bugs

That's what I'd assume at least.
