In my experience there are edge cases every now and then where a company needs a custom solution and achieves it by patching open source software.

The RedHat support will fix issues, they will not add new features only you need.

Realistically, if you need custom features to your linux distro, you wouldn't be paying for Red Hat, the moment you modify something your system becomes unsupportable and not in compliance and a whole bunch of other things that are the reason you pay for RHEL.

If you're at the level of needing custom operating system modifications you're probably better suited to finding a distro you can fork. Not pay for RHEL.
