The reasons I have thus far are (in no particular order)

 A) even smaller server footprint than git

 B) a user experience that isn't a complete disaster, leading to multiple 
rewritten front ends that confuse the issue even further

 C) an upstream that is actually willing to listen to our problems and fix 
them or help us to fix them

These are why I feel hg would be a better choice than git, from my experiences 
and talking with other Fedora contributors.
