We can definitely talk about whether moving to a slower cadence for certain parts of the base platform. But people don't judge Fedora on how beautifully we maintain glibc and gcc - they mostly judge it by installing it on a laptop and seeing how well it works.

I'm not sure that that's fair. I mean, I judge Fedora on how much its features are likely to cause problems 9-36 months down the road in an EL release... or now, in the case of cross-distro integration and support. I could care less about GNOME, but care very much about gcc, glibc, the kernel, and packaging of libraries.
*Laptop users* certainly judge Fedora on how well it works on laptops, and Workstation environment users judge Fedora on the Workstation spin.
Any other statement would pre-suppose the exact answers this and related discussion would seem to be working towards.
