That's a way too simplistic view - It's simply that other processes
(upstream release cycles, upstream release processes, package
maintainer's time slots, etc.) are not in sync with Fedora's cycles
and that Fedora's wanna-be QA's delay slots are severely adding to
the already existing problems.
You're not obliged to upload the latest upstream. It's very practical to
simply not do so.
