IMHO, the emphasis on "Enterprise" is key, along with promotional 
phrases like "reliable, predictable and reproducible" [1].

And of course the cost to the consumer is very appealing.

But CentOS and the CentOS Project are certainly not a good fit for 
anyone and/or everyone [2].

The CentOS Project *builds* an enterprise-class OS. It's free for all. 
And thank goodness it's not a free-for-all...
