These are good questions, but I feel like there has been about 2+
years of discussion and debate about what Fedora could get out of
modularity.  I'm not sure I have anything to offer that is directly
new or better.  I do think that ELN presents a new opportunity for
those that have already found value in the Fedora community to use and
improve it there in the absence of widespread Fedora adoption.
Perhaps that would allow a place for the ideas to grow and could prove
to be illustrative.

At any rate, my goal isn't to evangelize or convert Fedora to suddenly
embrace modularity wholescale.  I am simply offering clarity on the
plans for RHEL 9 with this technology.
