The approach to "long term stability" has not changed whatsoever. The only difference is whether the updates are delivered as point-release bundles every 6 months, or incrementally. And it's supported for 5 years instead of 10, which is in-line with other free LTS distros.

Nope. CentOS stream is ahead of RHEL and has been pitched as a developent version of RHEL. Prior to the change, CentOS was basically a complete opensource RHEL with long term support. https://thenewstack.io/back-to-the-future-a-look-at-centos-s...
