Tools used on fedora hosted do NOT have to support every SCM. We have
the ability to provide specific apps/tools for a project based on what
SCM they are using.

Most importantly, the overwhelming majority of our projects are using
git. There's no reason to mandate minority-scm support in anyone trying
to improve the majority.

In fact, I would say that's one of the things that makes the Fedora infrastructure so exceptional. It does not try to fit everything into a grand vision...I've seen those efforts, and they always fail because they are too rigid. The best infrastructures are the ones that dance with the system (and thus get the most support from all interested parties). There is absolutely room for cues to suggest how things should go (like making sure all bits can be packaged), but it ends up feeling very natural and...it just works.
