It’s also not often the case that you can split this kind of work into a thousand work-packages and have everybody just work 1/2 hour a day on it.

not like Debian for instance

The workflow is very different. For a primary distribution, updates to different packages happen at different times. Contributors can do that work when they have the time.

For a rebuild, work must happen as fast as possible after RHEL has released an update. Much harder for volunteers to contribute to.

There are other support roles that volunteers can hopefully do, but the core mission doesn't really align well with that.
