I see that page was updated since I last read it, I'm missing one 
important part from Max's quote above though:
"and is also robust enough that it can be relied on for server or 
desktop use."

I believe it is important to include this on the Objectives page, as a 
counter argument for all that Fedora is RHEL beta FUD.
