It looks like better idea to drop criterion as this option is obsolete.
So, I propose to remove criterion 

"The installed system must run normally if the user chooses to install
without SELinux"

from final criteria [1]. If someone wants to switch the selinux off it
can be easily done from the installed system. Some objections??
