As I understand it the intend is not to compete with Ubuntu who has a
longer support, but to have long enough support to be a viable option
for hardware vendor etc. IMHO anything above 5 years doesn't matter
much on desktop, especially laptops. So Ubuntu could have 15 years of
support, but it wouldn't mean that Fedora with 3-4 years couldn't
compete with it.
