That's precisely what I'm suggesting they attempt. > The point releases of a RHEL fork are meaningless unless they are identical to RHEL. Why?

I thought CentOS Stream essentially is an incompatible point-release — or rather, RHEL is a point-release off CentOS Stream's rolling release. Does Red Hat provide that much worse documentation for CentOS Stream than for RHEL? I guess I just don't understand what is the “secret sauce” that makes CentOS Stream so useless, but RHEL so compelling (or even a rebranded-but-otherwise-identical rebuild of RHEL like CentOS 7).
