Good question. Well, mktg because we made the flyer, not the desktop
because that list is more for development, I think? I could change this
either to desktop or the users list, which is where troubleshooting
questions go. What do you think? I could ask the workstation folks what
they prefer too.

The entire text is taken from the workstation release announcement -
verbatim:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F21_release_announcement#Fedora_21_Workstation

The discussion about it here suggested that Phoronix not be mentioned:

I'll look into this. (LaTeX handles hyphenation itself.)

Sure.

Well, this flyer isn't exactly for the novice user. It's targeted at the
audience that the workstation folks picked, which is more devs. I can
remove the line completely, it doesn't really contribute much IMHO.

Well, it's via gnome-software and epiphany - I haven't really been able
to find an official documentation page for this, which is probably why
there isn't a link anywhere that this is mentioned. I'll look harder. An
explanation will require a lot more space. This seems to be the best
description at the moment:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_(web_browser)#Web_Applications_mode

Almost everything else that I find is a blog post someone has made. 

Thanks for the feedback. I'll make some changes and post an updated
version asap.
