I think Adam Williamson tried to answer that in a message in the thread "Re: Modularity and the system-upgrade path" (link below) when he wrote:

"if you just don't modularize FreeIPA ... we're stuck shipping this one version of FreeIPA for the next seventy jillion years"

That I understood as a RHEL benefit, a solution to a RHEL problem.

We even put Python 2 to a module, so we don't need to support it that long.

Fedora is not supported for jillions of years, but 13 months.
Fedora has a hard rule that (default?) modular EOLs must align with Fedora release EOL.

So I don't see how this benefit applies for Fedora.

Thanks for the pointer anyway!
