I think you're missing the point. When ELN was approved, the intent
was to build Rawhide in a RHEL-ish configuration continuously. This
particular plan defeats what ELN was communicated as because now
there's a major deviation where people can't really participate and
it's not much benefit for everyone else. Moreover, GCC 11 *will* land
in Rawhide, so why not just push it there now? A Change proposal for
GCC 11 still makes sense because it's *for* Fedora in the end too.
