I'm trying to square this with my not being able to find this update:
https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2021:2098
which has libvirt-7.0.0-14.module+el8.4.0+10886+79296686 and is listed for:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Virtualization 8
which I don't see on my RHEL 8 machines:
Available Packages libvirt.x86_64 6.0.0-37.module+el8.5.0+12162+40884dd2 rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms Any more insight would be appreciated, thanks.
To the best of my knowledge, this module version is not part of RHEL but from the RHEL Advanced Virtualization 8 product. If you don't have the "advanced-virt{,-crb}-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms" repositories, you will not see these packages.
This is what I was confused about:

Yes, until RHEL 8.5 the latest-and-greatest virt packages used to be shipped within Advanced Virtualization. But since AV packages are part of RHEL now, there's no need for updating the SIG anymore because RHEL has the most updated packages
So, it seems that the latest-and-greated virt packages are still a part of the RHEL Advanced Virtualization 8 product and *not* a part of RHEL8 proper (though there are versions in the base product) as stated above?
