There is nothing preventing someone from producing a high quality package in a COPR.  Dismissing it out of hand is shortsighted.  It is a tool and like all tools it may solve a need in the future that we can't foresee right now.  I'd rather have the conversation and know the options.  Even if we don't find anything of value today, we might someday.
