Wonder if they understand that Fedora is the leading
platform for Redhat future development. So, are they just
looking at Fedora as a separate environment without
understanding that it will probable be in future Redhat
and probable other distros of Linux.

Probable some admin that knows nothing about the real
world environment..

Or, someone who does. RHEL/CentOS is losing mindshare in the real world, because of CentOS's switch to rolling releases. $dayjob$ has been a CentOS shop for decades, heavily virtualized. The first baby steps have now been taken, with several small projects now getting built on Ubuntu-based VMs. There was an announcement made earlier this year that their long term technology direction is to migrate all products to Ubuntu LTS. I doubt that the $dayjob$ is somehow unique or unusual, but I believe they're a pretty good representative sample of what commercial Linux-based shops are doing.

Slack's decision does not surprise me.
