Dependency hell? You have dependency hell with any distro.
up2date breaks things if you operate outside of the RPM database or badly package or use odd packages. That is true of any such tool. Play with fire? You will eventually be burned. If something blew up in production and you did not stage, don't blame to tool: *you* screwed up.
Also... RHN is much more than updates. apt-get and yum can also be configured (very easily BTW) to work on Red Hat and works on Fedora by default
