It's a question of looking at what others in this space are doing and
evaluating whether their features are appropriate for Fedora and what
their users are used and expect. Fedora users (and Linux users in
general) most probably use Windows or OS X at work and own an Android
or iOS phone, so diverging from them, especially when it comes to some
geeky log retrieval mechanism, isn't in the best interest of Fedora.
