And you create the same problem.  They won't be frequent enough to
support today's hardware, and also if you constantly just do new
versions of everything you lose the ability to support it long term as
too much churn breaks things.

To be fair, RHEL/CentOS does do limited hardware enablement in the
update releases, like 5.0, 5.1, etc...
