No I don't think so. Fedora is designed to be self consistent. If third
party packages mess it up, there isn't any way for the Fedora developers to
know any special magic needed to fix things without having detailed knowledge
of the third party packages. (Other than the standard uninstall the problem
package or reinstall from scratch, neither of which are good solutions in
this case.) Whereas RPMFusion is meant to be an add on to Fedora and the
combination of the two is meant to be self consistent. They need to know
both systems (though more detail about their stuff). They should be able to
tell you how to go back from having the nVidia kmod doing graphics to nouveau.
