Another example - I have two projects in Copr:
 * spark-cli - command line interface for Spark Core
 * nanoblogger - blog with just static pages generated by bash sript

I have no intention to get them into main Fedora. Mostly because I am not willing to fix bugs. I just packaged it for
myself. It works for me and it may work most people. Therefore I assume that it may be useful for somebody out there.

We (as Fedora) simply could not package and maintain everything with the same quality.
