The claim here that their sources are available seems like it probably has a lot of asterisks to it? Or is this kerfuffle really over nothing? McGrath seems to be fessing up to removing access to binaries, and has his hard-truth he wants to try to deal, but but it seems like the story goes significantly deeper or the anger/frustration wouldn't be anywhere near as high. It's not clear to me from a quick browse of the repo what backports/security fixes are/aren't available.

Binaries weren't removed, RHEL binaries were never available on git.centos.org. The source for RHEL is available via CentOS Stream. The only thing missing is the checkpoints in CentOS Stream where they decide it's suitable to send to RHEL, which makes it harder for the rebuilders to build the exact same thing.
