So, where you intend to fork and maintain, then fork and maintain.

If you do not intend to fork and maintain, then do not fork and maintain.

Is that what you are saying?

Yes, with a strong bias to not forking and maintaining. Stale project, well you gotta fork and maintain. Active project, avoid forking with the intention of using a custom build in your system.
