Comment:

 This is expected behavior as per
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/queries/#spanning-multi-
 valued-relationships spanning multi-valued relationships] as `beta` is a
 reverse `ForeignKey` and thus multi-valued.

 I'm not sure how we could give more visibility to this part of the
 documentation as this keeps being reported as a bug given how unintuitive
 it is. Maybe this could be mentioned in the
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#filter
 filter()] reference documentation?
