Please read the other threads before exploding like this.  To summarize, 
mariadb will replace mysql as the mysql-like db in Fedora 19.  However, 
if someone steps up to package mysql for F19, then it will also be 
available, just not installed by default.

And freedom != choice, at least not in the way you're implying here. 
That has also already been brought up recently, either in the mariadb 
thread or the openoffice one.
