Its important to distinguish two aspects here in this whole discussion.

Its great that RH opens their "firewalls". CentOS Stream is great
for that but what actually pissed the people off is the termination
of CentOS8 Linux. So all arguments for C8S doesn't touch the problem
that people have now. And no - C8S is not a valid substitution. Its
valid for a different usage scenario that is of course worth to get a 
chance but the mentioned problem don't get addressed ...
