I believe you don't. Do you use intents? I hope you don't.
In modularity, default streams and default profiles can be parametrized by
a system role (purpose, variant, spin). Modularity calls it an "intent".
Theoretically, if you install Fedora Workstation and then install a postgresql
module, client libraries or tools for PostgreSQL could be installed. While
installing the same module on a Server spin would instead install PostgreSQL
server.
Or, for example, if we had a "personal productivity apps" module, and you
had KDE Plasma installed, you'd get a KDE-flavored set of these apps, while
if you had GNOME Shell you'd get gtk ones. :)
That said... obviously we didn't get there. So I am fine with dropping this
feature.
