There is a massive difference between a company that manages trademarks and a for-profit business that depends entirely on gatekeeping behind a subscription and support contract. Before someone brings up Fedora, RHEL exercises ultimate control over that too. Think about that, RHEL owns the trademark to Fedora. Feel free to browse their board too. You can argue that Ubuntu provides a counter model to RHEL where only services and select products require a subscription but the OS is otherwise free.
