I think Adam Williamson tried to answer that in a message in the thread "Re:
Modularity and the system-upgrade path" (link below) when he wrote:
"if you just don't modularize FreeIPA ... we're stuck shipping this one
version
of FreeIPA for the next seventy jillion years"
That I understood as a RHEL benefit, a solution to a RHEL problem.
We even put Python 2 to a module, so we don't need to support it that long.
Fedora is not supported for jillions of years, but 13 months.
Fedora has a hard rule that (default?) modular EOLs must align with Fedora
release EOL.
So I don't see how this benefit applies for Fedora.
Thanks for the pointer anyway!
