Kai,
It is a reality, but when you look at the RHEL target audience, it's not exactly hip devs deploying Docker in the cloud.
Big corps, banks and the like have a very slow development cycle and long term support is absolutely crucial, software needs to run for years on end without glitches, without interruptions, in a very predictable manner etc.
For the aforementioned devs I think the best answer are the software collections, that or just use a different distribution. It is what it is.

Lucian, they also include the newer versions. The case of banks, who
need specially PHP version 5.3, are a slim 0.01% of php users, the rest
of the mortals, like me, who needs a simple webmail like horde running,
have problems because the rest of the world is not developing any more
with php 5.3 compatibility in mind
Saludos, Juan

It's irrelevant in this case that PHP 5.3 is EOL. It will continue
to be supported by Red Hat with security patches.
Exactly.
Nevertheless, PHP 5.6 is not "bleeding edge" as someone else said. 5.5 and
5.6 are really state of the art and often necessary to install certain
software packages or for some functionality. The packages provided by RH
are much too fast outdated or have other problems. It's a reality.
