Sure it was, there were 2 models before the merge, and one resulting model,
which happens to be close to the better one (the Extras one). The Core model
wasn't lost entirely, its good points persisted, e.g. there's an updates-
testing which is actively used, whereas Extras just pushed everything
directly. But as to when to provide new versions, the Extras model is
basically what we ended up with, and to me that's just further evidence that
it was the right one.

Except I don't see how what we're doing now is a mess.

Again, I fail to see that mess. To me we're actually doing a great job!

Sorry, but I don't see how the current situation would not be sustainable or
would impede growth in the long term, it has worked perfectly fine for
years. On the contrary, I think losing one of our biggest points of
distinction from other distributions would be a serious impediment to long
term growth and sustainability of Fedora.
