I understood that...as a RH user - at home fedora on workstation, RH 8.0
on server and have RH 7.3, 9 & AS employed at many of my customers, I
think I have a handle on the offerings of Red Hat.

Even your description has room for arguments...Fedora a consumer distro?
It's not for sale and not supported in any specific way to/for
consumers. It's very design is to be bleeding edge and often upgraded
and limited support cycle by Red Hat.
