I didn't mean to imply that... But, it is also unfair to automatically

That depends on perspective. Fedora's perspective is to support Free and
open source software exclusively. That doesn't require being judgmental
about non-free software.
Neither offers guarantees but Free software offers more choice and
flexibility if a vendor decides to cut off support for a product.
And a good vendor won't do that.
Many vendors do drop support quickly (which makes sense since the focus
is on volume) and some go out of business. Free software projects can
route around such damage.
