OK, please supply your own words. Jpackage.org has a perfectly fine repository.

Nobody has "perfect" repositories.

 Fedora copies some, but not all of those packages into a
potentially conflicting repository. Any argument so far?

You are over-simplying. Things aren't merely "copied" over as you can read about in other mails in the thread. There are developers involved from Red Hat and otherwise working across both these repositories. There are frequently changes in the packages in various directions.

 You did say
we learn to work with repository conflicts.

Yes, the way I deal with it is by not using any third party repositories that conflict with the official repository or with each other. I also suggested some other workarounds in a earlier mail if you choose to install conflicting repositories.
