This is an aspiration but by no means guaranteed. If the assumption is

assumption is that the council members will be leading the community or
persuading them to do something, it’s not obvious why the FPL-chosen
members will be more effective than the current board members which were
elected by the very communities they are supposed to lead or persuade.
I agree that the method of selection itself isn't particularly important --
it's the framework that that lives in. Currently, we frequently have no more
candidates standing for the board than open slots. And we get very low voter
turnout.
It means the community has "turned away" because Fedora has lost the
spirit, it one started with.
If you want to phrase it a little more aggressive: People don't care
about Fedora leadership anymore, because they have learnt Fedora is not
about getting community involved.
