Why doesn't Debian offer low-latency kernel ?



Dear Friends,

I have been wondering (for quite some time) why Debian hasn't ever
given low-latency kernel . I know we do have/give RT kernels.

The typical use case for real-time kernels is given as recording
studio or live-streaming or gaming server where latency is important.

>From what I could recall several years ago, low-latency kernel was
much better for specific applications at the cost of everything else
though.

Is it because there are not enough people in the Debian-kernel team as
in human resources or there hasn't been a need for it as such ?

Sorry for the long-winded question/query .
