On this point, I know I tend to be pretty liberal with my personal
machines (and tend to keep them at the latest !rawhide), but for my
work laptop, while I run Fedora for a variety of reasons, I tend to be
pretty conservative and upgrade to the latest only when forced to by
distro EOL or some other compelling reason. A LTS plan would make
sense for reasonable situations like this.
No, it wouldn't.
(I know you know that I know what you know so you should know what
I know and I know there are other options and I know that you know
that.)
