No one will prevent you from doing so. Nothing on your end will change.
I get it now - This is the old meets the new.
New: MTA? WTF?
Old: MTA! <3
It is asking a lot for Fedora to be a "one size fits all" distribution.
No one will be happy, so what can the compromise be?
1) Leave as is. Makes MTA-lovers rejoice. Other folks will continue to
yum remove.
2) Remove from comps. Makes Desktop users rejoice. Other folks will yum
install {sendmail,postfix,exim,$MTA}
3) Make Fedora installs separated into "usage-based" comps. Server,
Laptop, Netbook, and Handheld (read MeeGo).
