RHEL is intended for servers and not desktop systems. Most servers are
accessed over the web, and installed over the network. For a different
server OS, on a recent project we didn't even create anything but
network install images. I'm not sure if this justifies Red Hat's
position, but I can see where desktop access to a server OS wouldn't be
a priority.
Also, the NFB does not like to sue people. It much prefers to settle
things outside of court, and resorts to law suits as a last resort.
