I see two aspects to this discussion:
1) Generic tradeoffs with host configuration
2) The specific discussion about tuned profiles
Following 2) if I run:
$ cd ~/src/github/openshift/origin
$ git describe --tags --always
v1.3.-rc1-14-ge9081ae
$ git log --follow contrib/tuned/origin-node-host/tuned.conf
There are a grand total of *two* commits that aren't mere
code reorganization:

Provide both a host and guest profile
That level of change seems quite sufficient for the slower
RHEL cadence, no?
Particularly when one considers that something like the
inotify watch bump could easily be part of a "tuned updates"
in the installer that would live there until the base tuned
profile updates.
Right?

In this particular case of tuned, I'd argue that Atomic Host should come
out of the box with these profiles,
and that any async updates could be done via the openshift-ansible
installer.
