Correct, but I don't see that as a problem, considering that the last time we've officially "released" a p2v ISO, that was in the RHEL-7.6 (I think) timeframe, the infrastructure needed for building the ISO even on that major RHEL release does not exist any longer, and the only interim solution we have right now is me building the binary on my workstation and the ISO in a dedicated Fedora VM. For RHEL-9.2, it's theoretically possible that the Image Builder service can accommodate our needs, but then we're going to use custom repos anyway. (I've just finished the commit message for the replacement, and yes I mentioned EPEL9 there.)
