There's a notion called freedom that you may have heard of.

Again, this supposes that one of Fedora's end goals is to easily
permit its users to migrate to other distributions. This isn't the
case.

When a Fedora version release reaches EOL, users have the possibility
of upgrading to the next release. These days, they even have the option
of upgrading to the release following that one if they wait long enough.
I have no idea where you get the notion that we're guiding users to a
"planned dead-end" or that, once a Fedora release is EOL-ed, they have
to dump out their work out the window.

If your goal is to use an distribution that promises ABI/API
compatibility, long term support and other "enterprise" features, there
are a whole host of distributions for which these are goals.
Why not use them ?
