"Would be interesting to know why the migration."

Others may disagree but (IMHO) RH's business model; i.e. long term support
agreement, methods of patching and updating their repos and by extension
all Distros that copy or rely in their model (CentOS) where not designed
for "The Cloud" where VM instances are spun up or and destroyed minute by
minute.

To be sure RH and others have moved to try and better position their
products for this environment but this is one time when Canonical got their
first, with a build and lifecycle that better fits the environment.
