I can understand the desire for it in Alma, since it's primarily a replacement for Scientific-Linux, and will be on a lot of cloud services, but anytime you add a requirement for something to basically function, you increase the likelihood that it won't.
What requirement would that be?
I have not used Alma in daily usage.
I think as a "just works" Workstation it is great, based on the giants, and bootc makes it even more stable.
By using EPEL, KDE, or even CentOS Stream and Hyperscale packages (which Meta does in production but I can imagine not everyone wants to do), you get more instability. This could be mitigated with the atomic structure.
Also, instead of full Hyperscale, the COPR
kwizart/kernel-longterm
could be used, which is the more current, official LTS kernel.
