I use another distro but totally appreciate the effort to keep different branches of potential futures alive. Humans have a tendency, in tech and most other domains afaict, to put a lot of eggs in one basket because it's easier/allows-faster-moving-forward.. but that basket may have structural weaknesses that only shows once it has A LOT of eggs in it.

Yep, the Linux kernel comes to mind. There are niche alternatives but mostly everyone settles on Linux as their kernel because it's easier and allows moving faster forwards.
