imho, it would be wrong to force people to get the centos-release-cr by default, specially in the centos-5 lifecycle since it would be a drastic change in the way things work and what people's expectations might be.[1]
Sorry, but I don't know any people who expected the default Centos update behavior to lag months behind upstream for security fixes.
The important bit being that we keep the CR repo opt-in, and do our best to create awareness of this repository, what it hopes to achieve and how people can get it installed on their machines.
How does it make sense to recommend one thing and make the default something else? Especially when the default is not what people expect?
