CodeReady goes up by 562 packages, appstream goes up by almost 1000, and baseos goes down by 2.

Why wouldn't a customer be able to access every package regardless of the module being enabled or disabled. Packages can be installed separately from their modules.

Why did baseos go down in packages from me enabling all the modules (just the default streams, If no default, then the only stream). Why don't all modules have a default stream? Should I address that with a bugzilla against each module?



Expected results:
Packages should be installable regardless of a module being enabled or disabled. You can install the packages of a module without even enabling a
