I am not sure how CentOS Stream makes any sense. CentOS stands for Community Enterprise Operating System, how on earth can CentOS Stream be called an Enterprise operating System?

It is also not community-based anymore anyway.

So now it is just "Operating System", maybe they should rename it IBMBetaOS or something like that.

Would it make sense to regard CentOS Stream as essentially CentOS/RHEL Beta?

Yes.

I mean they say "no", but it's definitely something less than the full production release.

It's basically the beta of the next RHEL minor release, not a beta of a next major release.
