This is clearly against the Fedora code of conduct's requirement that 
Fedora community members be awesome to one another. It is perfectly 
fine to question design decisions, but it is *not* OK to impute nasty 
motives to those decisions without any evidence. Please exercise some 
restraint and discuss decisions based on the facts, not based on 
imagined motivations.
