I believe that that is the model indeed ....

I do not think so: at least not while looking at our
RHEL systems here: these get all the announced updates
as soon as these are released from beta to production

PS: At CERN we follow the RHN: we deploy updates when
     they come and we mostly roll out the quarterly releases
     for users convenience (not having to download 1.5 GB
     updates or so just after install).
