I made three points on fast boot, (1) encryption for security, (2) no services
may not be a useful configuration for normal use, and (3) Fedora provides
working selinux. After rereading I don't see how I could have been more clear, I
put them in separate paragraphs!
I have no idea how you reached this bizarre conclusion, I think the first
