Which is entirely reasonable, when there's a) a large cost in supporting multiple ways of doing it, and b) no actual downside for most of the majority in doing things the same way as the minority. Because that's pretty much the situation in this case - a tiny minority want it one way, a tiny minority want it the other way, and an overwhelming majority aren't really affected either way. So it comes down to picking which minority you want to please... and when one of those minorities is paying the bills (in this case, Red Hat selling VM and container solutions), they tend to in.
