Hi, Frank, I am new to Fedora (about 1 year now), but I understand some of the problem, but perhaps you should elucidate for the new users or uninitiated folks about the results that can occur from these options and also when it is reasonable to use one of them. There are reasons on both sides I am sure, but I don't yet know all the "ins and outs" of the process, so don't feel competent to advise any one on this issue.
