Well, IMO, Fedora's purpose should be "stable while
following upstream
without API/ABI breakages of existing packages".
In practice, this means "frequent updates", "adopt early", "fix
ASAP" ("fixed rawhide" and "fixed upstream" should be banned in
Fedora)
on a "stable foundation (API/ABIs)".
It's one fundamental point rendering Fedora interesting. Another one
closely related to it is "exposure of user-contributed/developed
packages".
IMO, users wanting a "security-only updated" distro should probably
better choose EPEL or an even more "boring" Linux distro.
I agree totally,
