ad b) how many times have this feature actually saved you from erasing the
kernel? In 10+ years using Linux I have never managed to do this accidentally.
That being said, if users accidentally instruct yum to erase the running
kernel on a regular basis, we are will reconsider this argument. Hence the
poll ... feel free to reopen the bug too, otherwise it might get off the radar.

Note that even updates can bite you if dnf will always be removing the oldest kernel, even if that is the one you are running. There may be kernel or dracut problems keeping the newer installed kernels from being usable on a particular system. Also if the running kernel is removed, you won't be able to load any modules that are already loaded.
