Because it will be eol before you blink.  So even if f20 is brand new, 
you at least live with it for a while before the next update. Plus i got 
to find a bug with NVRAM update with my Lenovo x120e which is now an RFE 
for f21.  If I had been on f19, might not have caught this, or had a 
bigger struggle to get them to realize that the NVRAM update should be 
the LAST step of the installation, not so early, so if it fails you 
still have a bootable install.  I got some good help to get things working.

Well since I am now running on an SSD drive, I have my old HD to test 
with.  Maybe.  Or maybe I will wait until Centos 7 comes out. ;)
