Why are you telling about half baked updates? Who will do that? Fedora
They're half-baked in the sense that there's less commitement
post-EOL than pre-EOL.
But post-EOL there is currently no commitment and there won't be any
promise on it. Some is better than not at all.
"Might someday get looked at and fixed, if somebody cares" is definitely
much worse than "No more fixes, do upgrade".

Some users will do so, but others will react as Wikipedia did: Quit
using Fedora and switch to a different distro or OS.

Hell, folks, I have seen people switching to MinGW, because of this.
They told me, "MinGW" better suites their needs because it offers
support for "this weird GNU-stuff" on "the industry-standard OS".

I don't think I'd use 'standard' to describe something unique and proprietary, but there is something to be said about an OS that runs for years without reinstalling and works with vendor provided drivers that also don't need to be reinstalled every few weeks.
