As an academic user I see no problems engaging with Redhat explicitly.
Many university setups are such that on the server and centrally
managed infrastructure we have RHEL or Centos, and individual user
laptops/desktops can be on random operating systems including Fedora.
So I see it a net positive if there is some cross-talk between Fedora
and RHEL, especially if that influences the latter in a useful way.
