The base distro is nothing more than a recompile - there is no reason
why you should have any reasons to doubt that [1]. You will actually
find that we stick with Redhat's product line a lot close than Whitebox
does ( for EL4 atleast ).
CentOS, as a project, does indeed provide more options via extra
repositories - but if you dont want them, there is no reason for you to
enable and use them.

That is because he has refused any outside help, Whitebox is built for
his own use and he will not accept anyone else's work in there. If that
means there are no updates for 5 - 6 months at a go, so be it.

can address the issues.
