So at least some commercial OSes, if you will agree that we could refer to the first two of these distros as such, are also staying with old decisions for a long time. And even though RHEL in particular is know for its insane dedication to keeping API compatibility with backports of software, they still are in a position to change things around between major versions. And I believe they do do that quite a bit, which is why they also give so long time before EOLing old versions so that enterprise has plenty of time to adapt to the changes with major version upgrades.
