Question is, why even bother ? I have yet to see one argument why this
would be better. Just making broad statements as such, is not an
argument for actually doing it.

I for one, see benefits in keeping it there, because when I search for
issues, I sometimes come across a similar issue in rhel5/rhel6, which
then allows me to fix or find the issue, that I need to report, so
upstream/package maintainer can fix it.

So, I am a bit dubious about this suggestion.

Any enlightenment would be welcome.

Regards,

Tristan
