"Since Facebook changed the email addresses on contacts, I've actually lost every single one of my email addresses including those for work." -Complaint from iOS 6 user

My suggestion, don't use the very first beta release of a operating system on anything important. Digital darwinism at work there.

What about all the Android and Blackberry users who had their addresses replaced?

What's the lesson there?

Oh that is Facebook screwing up. I'm not trying to pardon that. I just hate people who complain about stuff when they take a well defined risk and it backfires on them.

Indeed, Apple have a very explicit message on the download page for all iOS betas to not use it on a device that's not solely dedicated to testing.
