How is this going to be fixed .. Welcome to CentOS Stream

Stream will be , once it is fully implemented, the ACTUAL development of
RHEL the 'next point release' on git.centos.org in the open.

It will be a rolling distro that is GOING to be the Source Code used for
next RHEL point release.

Therefore, we will have all package as they are being worked on by the
RHEL Engineers .. and you can see it happen in progress.  You can also
use it however you want.  There will be no delay i this at all.  It will
be constantly moving. There will be no 500 pacakges drop or delays.
