You know, this would be a really good review if the author would just find a native English speaker to proofread his work and correct his grammar and usage. Otherwise he covers the basics of what Stella offers and a couple of disadvantages (a one man distro) pretty darned well.

I think he did a fine job. I appreciated all the screenshots.

If developer Nux decides to stop releasing Stella, you could always re-configure the repositories and go on with a pure CentOS system, so the one-man-band nature of the project doesn't worry me as much as it does in other cases.

That's pretty much true of any of the Red Hat clones. They all have interchangeable packages. Change the repos and the release file and you're good to go.
