But as he says, that's not actually how it works. Lots of companies have RH on critical systems, and Cent/Rocky/Alma on less critical, because they can't afford to have RH everywhere. So why would you think they would now go RH everywhere, especially after losing Cent and having to switch to Rocky/Alma, instead of going to Debian/Ubuntu or SUSE and not having to worry about it? Not to mention that new admins and even current admins using Cent/Rocky/Alma at home to learn and play - now they can't. There definitely was a platform effect, and now they have killed it.
