As a consumer of EPEL, I'd rather nothing in the base RHEL (or really CentOS in my case) ever get replaced, up or downgrade, by something in EPEL.
Nothing in EPEL would by default, but you could explicitly chose to. This would be like enabling a Copr or other repo which happens to override, but more integrated.
Unless... does RHEL have modules that replace base packages? I admit, I haven't fully got my head wrapped around all the effects of modularity.
I'm not sure if RHEL has any such modules, but it is functionally possible.
