Oh, great, I now can see the world with your eyes! And last part about
servers life cycle wise doesn't sound much different from what I do using
FreeBSD and jails. The only difference is maybe in how frequently I have
to reboot Linux (any flavor) due to kernel or glibc security update
compared to reboot of FreeBSD.

Yup. That's indeed a problem that the Fedora kernel is moving a bit too fast for a server. Our machines sit behind a firewall, and as of I know, our students are not crazy about privilege escalation/Meltdown attacking their own servers. So we usually only reboot when there's a power outage that is longer than what our UPS could handle, which is unfortunately quite common on this campus.
