Am I right in thinking that the only significant feature that the early access version brings is the local play capability - which I’d be surprised if many people were queueing up for?

The Rose team mentioned they were working on a new database structure which would significantly improve scanning speed and (hopefully) provide the basis for other improvements.

We’re now in Q3 so making beta versions available through the EA program would be a sensible way of “battle hardening” the new version once it was reasonably stable.
