Please cut them some slack for this. It is not like this is the rc for the next version of a long running distribution. It is the first ever release using a from scratch implemented build infrastructure.

People have been treating Rocky as a done deal, a ready to go CentOS replacement for months. It will be very soon, hopefully, but the developers haven’t claimed to ready.
Using Rocky Linux as a basis for a long term production system is still a few months or perhaps a year into the future, and people need to let the team get everything in place before complaing that they can’t seemlessly move from one free OS to another.
