I don't. I consider what you call "life-cycle separation" (I'd rather call 
it "inconsistent EOLs") a bug rather than a feature.

This is yet another of those "features" that sound great on paper, but lead 
to a horrible user experience in practice. Right now, it is easy to know 
when you have to upgrade, as there is one EOL for the entire distro. With 
inconsistent per-module EOLs, as soon as you have a non-trivial amount of 
modules installed, it is impossible to track down when you need to upgrade 
what. So either you end up with an unsupported version of the module without 
even noticing, or you get forcefully upgraded at what will often be the 
worst possible time.
