Honestly I don't think modularity is a serious problem for end users. Missing -devel packages is unbelievably frustrating, though. And EPEL just doesn't contain as much as Fedora does, in general.

So for personal servers... well, I've never seen Fedora Server broken by automatic updates. I don't think I would use Fedora Server for critical business infrastructure, but it works well enough for my personal needs. The odds of encountering problems with Fedora are simply way lower than the odds of discovering that EPEL lacks something that I want, or an essential -devel package that doesn't exist.
