No, I'm not suggesting that.

We'll delete the soas git repo and strawberry ISO and then you'll
still have the same distro available from fedora.redhat.com, right?
I'm not going to work harder than I have already to make the SoaS
Fedora distinction any clearer.

SoaS has a different set of binary .ISOs and - critically - a
different set of support tools and fora.  Thus it's a different
distro.

In fact this is the de facto sitation per 1.  Hardly irrelevant.

Per 1's supposed irrelevancy, you seem to want to conclude - despite
earlier saying that SoaS was the only way we'd be able to react to
deployments' needs - that SoaS is zero work to support anyway.  I
pointed you to emails and discussions where more work than Fedora
provided was being requested.  I don't see how this question can be
more relevant.
