So, you refuse to hear your users, who have stated good arguments, for something that is not very difficult to change, the name of the iso, which is not coherent with the 7.0 name and confusing ?

It is only confusing if you let it confuse you. I've been around this thing long enough to remember when the distribution ISO's carried wonderful names like 'seawolf-i386-disc1.iso' (study a bit and you'll get the joke). I'm just experiencing a bit of disbelief that people are getting hung up over the file's name being the slightest bit unexpectedly different, that's all.

And my comment that 'it is impossible to satisfy everyone' is a bit of a USA idiom, typically quoted as "You can't please anyone all the time, nor can you please everyone any time" or similar.

Yes, not very wise... Karanbir corrected very quickly the content of the redhat-release file, because it was totally different from 7.0, and broke a lot of scripts and applications.
The issue of the content of redhat-release was a serious and valid one that actually broke stuff; the ISO name being different from expected doesn't break stuff. If the ISO name broke stuff, then that would be different, and it would have already been fixed.
