First you have to give someone a reason to want to migrate to

contributed or developed for your own use, staying in the same
community instead of having all previous work dumped out the window at
the end of a cycle. I'll point out again that this is the way Red Hat
developed its popularity, although it was probably a mistake to have
tried to support every release forever.

Fedora is _not_ enterprise, it is _not_ in its goals, it is _not_ it's
target audience. Why would anybody start on Fedora planning to "graduate"
to EL?

For exactly the same reason that people used to use RH X.0 versions for development and testing, planning to run their programs on X.2 as both their local development and the distribution mature. That's what made RH popular. And there is no equivalent now that Fedora never matures to a supported stable version.
