This rationale contributes to me not to consider RHEL and CentOS, which is the rationale why I don't consider them to be replacements for a "Fedora LTS".
So CentOS is non-free?
CentOS is free as "free-beer", but CentOS is not free to take decisions on their own, because they depend on RHEL's sources.
Can I put any package into Fedora then?
Yes, but you can't modify packages in CentOS, which would break RHEL-compatibility, nor will you be able to add any package to EPEL, if a release of CentOS doesn't meet this package's demands.
