I’m glad you enjoy it :) They’re following what Red Hat is doing because they’re intended to mimic precisely RHEL. We used to say that Rocky is a “bug for bug” mirror of RHEL. So they have no choice but to follow suit.
I know :( I followed the drama around btrfs being removed. I wish someone did a community respin of Rocky with more general stuff that wouldn't be bug for bug compatible but fill the Debian niche in Red Hat space.
