Is this really true?
It's my personal opinion based on what I would assume to
be common
sense, based on a distro's user-side expectation.
End-users are expecting function and bugs they are suffering from to be
fixed, ASAP - Nothing else.
I'm under the impression that Fedora also cares
about sustainable solutions.
Sure. This is the dev-focused perspective. But from an
end-user's
perspective, this aspect is widely negligible.
These two goals sometimes conflict.
Sure, these occasionally
do.
They
have to be weighed against each other, but there is no general rule
which goal is more important.
As I see it, in practice in Fedora, these conflict,
because rawhide
tries to be dev-focused (and end-user unstable), while Fedora N is
end-user focused.
