The way I understood the parent is that the Debian model didn't actually solve the problem it was suggested as a solution for. It merely offloaded the problem to someone else. In other words, it has a dependency and therefore is not a complete solution. That's how I understood it.

Debian isn't more dependent on RedHat than any other Linux distribution is. It has nothing to do with the governance model, but rather with the fact, that multiple open-source solutions created by RedHat employees and firstly released in Fedora have won as currently the best.
