Excuse me, perhaps I'm reading too much into your words, just for my own understanding: does this mean it's not clear if Red Hat will continue forever to release the sources for RHEL publicly, and perhaps only provide them to their customers, at some point in the future? I'm thinking more from perspective of rebuilds like Alma Linux or Oracle EL - they wouldn't have anything to rebuild by themselves anymore. With the zero-cost RHEL covering the use case of many small companies and hobbyists, I imagine this would be possible.
