My argument is that people should have more reasonable expectations from a free project. That it is unreasonable for a free project that is shutting down to continue to operate until all EOL's are reached, especially til 2029. It's quite nice of them to keep things going for a full year in order that people can make other arrangements.
Once the unfortunate decision was made to shut down CentOS, it would be very nice if the public outrage was tempered with a little appreciation for the 6 years of support that Red Hat gave to it, and also an appreciation for the new options for free access to RHEL they are providing.
People seem awfully entitled in their outrage.
