I think your missing the point of Leap, Leap is meant to be stable and boring, its meant to keep the same or a very similar base system for most of its lifecycle, it intentionally doesn't get the newest everything stuff is only upgraded if there is a really good reason, this is what some openSUSE users want. For people who want the latest stuff tumbleweed is a far better option.
not sure if this is the correct thread and location (actually I think it's not) but this is actually an interesting topic. Specifically since 15.1 I had the feeling that SUSE "dictates" a bit too much what gets into Leap and what is not. There are examples where updates were dismissed because SLE 15SP1 has a certain package and didn't want to upgrade or packages which are taken over by SLE15 variants which were a fork before. I am not sure if all those decisions have been completely agreed inbetween the openSUSE community packager and SUSE. At the same time I'm all in for compatibility between Leap and SLE and also to make maintenance easier for the community if something is maintained by SUSE but all that is very fine line in my opinion and I have the light feeling that it tends to get stretched a bit far into the SLE direction. This is probably just my perspective for the stuff I'm somehow involved in.
