I'm doing it for the classic reason:
I can't upgrade my servers just anytime; I need to upgrade them on a
strict schedule. In other words, I have "windows of opportunity" within
which to upgrade.
As you might guess, the upgrade schedule for FC releases does not usually
match my windows of opportunity... So I need something to keep my going
for up to a year, until I can upgrade the machines...

Very rarely I hit a driver issue or other issue. But mostly it is
a matter of timing and available time.
