To quote you from the other ongoing thread: "The default stream

If that's the case, then what *is* the benefit of abandoning the
non-modular version of packages, if default streams need to basically
be maintained separately for different branches anyway? 🤔
To me, most packages would benefit from having two streams: fast and slow.
That's the essential problem I want solved anyway. (Maybe with CentOS
Streams: fast, slow, very slow.)
The "slow" version would be updated on a careful cadence with big updates
aligned with release boundaries. The fast version would be rolling latest.
And for applications, you can pick which you want.
