It seems that SUSE wants to shift its enterprise offering to ALP (adaptable linux platform) instead of the legacy SLE platform to better support modern workloads. https://www.suse.com/c/suse-salp-raises-the-bar-on-confident...

it makes sense to then also shift the open source stream in that direction, which is happening with Leap 16.

It was announced after the end of Leap was proclaimed, again feeding suspicion that Leap 16 is meant to save some goodwill rather than part of a solid plan of supporting users.

It all looks opportunistic, the total opposite of what users of such distros expect. You can built out your use of it at your peril.
