This may not matter for home use but worth of a discussion in any case.

In case anyone missed the smoke-and-mirrors on that one CentOS stream
takes the "ent" out of "CentOS"

"ent" used to stand for "enterprise grade", but that is no longer the
case with stream.

The reason it used to be enterprise grade is because it was downstream
from RHEL, and RHEL undergoes a great deal of QA performed by RH.

Stream is now UPSTREAM from RHEL - which is a bit crazy.  This is the
other shoe dropping from the RH official collaboration with CentOS a
few years ago.

Anyone who is currently using CentOS in a production environment needs
to have a serious look at changing distros.
