Interfaces broken by mid-version updates are just as broken in fedora as 
they would be in RHEL and it's not any more a straw man for one 
distribution than another unless you are willing to say that one is only 
suitable for testing. If you want to say the changes are a good thing, 
then lets see them in RHEL too. But, if you want to put that aside for 
the moment, firewire will make a great example.  Do you forsee a time 
when you would keep your own backups or valuable data on a firewire 
drive under fedora?
