Glad to hear it. A quick note, Fedora Workstation (what I refer to as the "GNOME Spin") may send out an update which resets your firewall to their defaults, which would open you back up to attacks. I'll pass this along, and hopefully we can get a more sane firewall into Fedora's GNOME experience within the year..
I guarantee that the firewall will not be changing. It has been discussed at length in the past and that is what was decided on. Your opinion on it is noted, but will not change anything.
If it has been discussed at length, then you'd know that it makes no sense to open all of the ports that firewall zone opens. You've seen a real-world example of the harm that firewall zone causes in this very thread.
It makes sense and I didn't see any harm in this thread. Feel free to bring it up again, but all you'll do is annoy people.
