It is a deadlock way for Fedora.
 
"Enthusiasts and developers" means that Fedora will be used on their 
home computers/laptops etc. only, and *never* used in the production 
environment. But a lot of critical bugs can be found only by "production 
usage".
If RHEL is based on Fedora, then Fedora must be stable enough for 
production systems too. Otherwise RHEL people should spent a lot of 
testing/laboratory etc. work itself, but even such a work does not 
guarantee that they will catch all the bugs possible...
