Up to here you definitely had my sympathy. But this anarchical approach

little bit too unstable for them. These people would probably want more
than the average level of QA. To borrow a phrasing from Jef, legacy
updates should be edible by babies.
More QA in EOL than in release doesn't make sense. This 'anarchical'
approach is not very anarchical given what kind of changes are allowed.

From a developer's point of view you are right. But I believe that the
majority of risk takers would upgrade before the end of life simply
because they want the newer stuff. Like I said, I am at a loss to
understand who your target audience is. I identified my concept of a
target audience, one that doesn't want the instability of an upgrade.
Who is your target audience and how big do you expect this audience to
be? Are there any statistics from Fedora legacy which would indicate the
demand for the product? Any surveys indicating what people wanted from a
Fedora legacy.
Don't get me wrong. I am not trying to discourage you. I am trying to
help you build a better use case.
