It may incidentally be in some cases, but isn't guaranteed to be. Things don't necessarily flow back up from RHEL to CentOS stream, and even if they do in a general sense, it may not be sufficient to build the exact same tag that RHEL uses. Someone else mentioned that they were not able to build RHEL packages from CentOS stream.
Pushing things back to CentOS stream is not a requirement of GPL. GPL's role ends once RHEL customers get the source. Do you mean evidence of CentOS stream not being enough ? The post talks about it. Rocky needs to collate sources from several places now to create 1:1 RHEL rebuilds.

I think this is what I mean, yes.
The rhel trees are synced from the centos trees. If centos git trees couldnt build, rhel couldnt build. Afaics the only time this seems to be in conflict is for important and critical cve's , which are built on a rhel specific branch. After package release these branches are merged with centos, and the local rhel branches deleted and business continues as normal.
This is an attempt not to break embargo agreements with researchers who ask for it.
