That would be bad, since the only reason GCC releases are even as good
as they are is because they get tested with rebuilding the corpus of
Fedora Rawhide software. That's why we merge them in so early in the
first place.
And now we're merging it in earlier for a subset of the distribution. This is a net-positive, right? If your position is that earlier is better, we're doing it earlier, and this is better. If your position is that it doesn't go far enough, consider the contrary feedback from some people here where some maintainers are concerned about potential make-work for themselves. This seems like a good compromise position to me.
