I think he's solving 1 instance of this problem, but not the whole class. And the fix has some drawbacks (eg more p2 repositories necessary to install certain packages).

The whole community currently uses things like https://download.eclipse.org/releases/latest/ for one stop shopping for updates.   Surely changing that is not a good solution to an internal/interim releng issue.

The repo would still be present in EPP, it's just that this wouldn't contain the EPP artifacts anymore which would be in a separate repository (eg https://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/latest/ ) enabled in EPP by default. So Check for Updates from EPP packages would still work and EPP could more easily include non-SimRel-repo artifacts like JustJ.
