No, nothing to do with any distribution like Fedora or any other.

It has to do with personal choices based on what HW you have, or want to buy, and if
you're interested in newer HW or features being introduced.  As mentioned previously,
RPMfusion (which targets Fedora) releases the latest versions of the Long Live SW.

I suppose I'd be tempted to refer to Short Lived as their Beta branch.......but they
(nVidia) may consider it differently. 

In the end, none of that matters.  You pick the repo that gives you what you need and
want.  I've been perfectly happy with RPMfusion and their packages and methodology
when it comes to installation and updates to nVidia.
