Err, where is the contradiction?  I did clear point out that there is a
additional maintenance burden involved in this but if there is a
necessity for faster updates, it will happen anyway and it already has
elsewhere for various reasons.

You did read it incorrectly.  Splitting up the update stream doesn't
involve going back to core+extras at all.   KDE has a additional repo
already in kde-redhat.sf.net where they have first builds before they
get into the official updates repo..  Accommodating such workflows
within the Fedora infrastructure would allow people who want to move a
newer KDE in older versions, the choice to do so more easily.
