I think it's more or less just been the case that having it around
wasn't considered to cause any particular harm, and writing some code to
try and uninstall it is one more damn thing that can go wrong, and we
have enough of those already. Doesn't seem like a problem if someone
wants to implement it, though.

Some people do make respins of stable releases, and the anaconda team
occasionally sends out fixes for the more egregious bugs in a release I
guess so respins can benefit. There may be some other purpose, but I
don't know what. It's not for RHEL, RHEL has its own branch of anaconda
19.
