The companies that pay for RHEL licenses for production and use CentOS for test
will be left with a large problem. They will either need to purchase double
the number of RHEL licenses and switch to RHEL for testing or go to another
distribution. RHEL + 1 will not work for testing application compatibility
with patches.
No company will want to pay double the amount they are currently paying for
RHEL licenses. This is not even addressing the cost and time it will take to
switch over all the test servers.
This will cost Red Hat credibility with major companies that they might never
recover from. This will cost Red Hat major business.
I will be recommending that my company change to Oracle Linux 8, instead of
upgrading to RHEL 8. We will get the same model we are currently using, Paid
support for production and free for test servers.

CentOS Stream is built from the currently released RHEL Source Code + 0.1
So if RHEL 8.3 is released .. Stream is the Source Code (built) that will
become 8.4 in a few months.
