The upgrade pace of Alpine is quite reasonable, especially considering that breakage is extremely rare. Expecting to set up a box and not touch it for 10 years is... not reasonable. If that's what you wanted from CentOS, then you have a broken organization.

It wasn’t just 10 years of support, it’s 10 years of ABI stability as well. If that wasn’t a big selling point, I don’t think Red Hat or Microsoft would be as successful as they have been in enterprise.
