I didn't claim it's trivial or not. The message itself is confusing. There are 3 concerns here: beta, Stripe, countries and it's no clear how they inter-relate from the blog posts. As far as I can tell now, no-beta==Stripe Countries, beta==non-Stripe-Countries and other payment options like wire transfer have no weight.
