1. Of course there is no such thing as flawless data analysis, but they have data and people hired to analyse it and we… don’t. 2. RH makes their money of off companies that pay for support. Do you think that if a company can’t use CentOS they’re going to pirate RHEL? Really? 3. Conclusions from leadership are never perfect, but that does not mean the default conclusion should be that they are awful. RH seems to be doing pretty well at the moment. Opportunity cost is a central concept in economics. When deciding between decisions A and B, companies will consider the revenue they would gain from either decision. If companies accept the revenue from decision A, they are doing it at the cost of the revenue they would have made from decision B. This is what I mean by “lost revenue”. By choosing to shut down git.centos.org, RH loses the revenue they would have gotten from keeping the repository open and gains the revenue they believe they will get from shutting it down. My apologies if this sounds condescending, but you keep insisting that there’s no such thing as “lost revenue” and I genuinely don’t know how to respond to that without just explaining opportunity cost.
