I'd rather they didn't have to waste their valuable engineer time supporting the small niche case of some making certain magic binaries a little easier to hack on. Their time can be much better spent working on the upstream project wherever it might be hosted. As long as the license is respected Red Hat can distribute as they want. Indeed you could argue that CentOS stream provides the "preferred form" of code access required for building Red Hat like distros.

This is a storm in a teacup when we have bigger oceans to boil.
