Even if this is positioned as "archival" or "research", I think
providing these after EOL is simply going to lead to further use of an
EOL Fedora. That is essentially setting up those users for security
exploits and a poor user experience when none of their bugs will be
fixed.
I agree with Josh 100% here. we should not enable people to run unsupported
software.
