My point has nothing to do with promoting anything or whether the
additional software meets your religious beliefs or not. It is strictly
about providing a user with a platform that is not limited by design or
its inability to provide stable interfaces.
You say limit by design, I say do not support. Limit by design would
be to hard code repos into yum. Not support would be to not provide
all repos in yum by default.
