Though that doesn’t preclude people switching to RHEL on their ex-Windows 10 computers when that point is reached. Though there’s the options of RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 it would be advantageous in several respects including environmental ones, to take it into account for RHEL 10. It may even be a basis for a conversion campaign involving compatible systems that were once Windows 10, to promote conversion from Windows 10 to RHEL 10.

That would be funny but - it seems that RH's agenda does not have a
focus on workstation scenarios anymore. Main productivity applications
are already marked as deprecated. So, they will not be included in a
future major release:
