Can you suggest a way to get SELinux back in order?

After about a day of not having crontabs running I realized that
SELinux was stopping both user and root crontab jobs.  I messed with it
and then discovered:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1298192
(Recent dnf updates caused crontabs to be restricted.  Reboot to last
kernel fixes that.)

I added myself to that bug but I had already broken SELinux to the
point where it would not work properly even if I rebooted to the
previous kernel.  I was willing to be stupid/brave about messing with
it since I figure that if I can't get it back in order then I don't
know enough about it.  A full relabel takes about ten minutes on my
system, so it is not terrible.

I have been with "Fedora" since it was "Redhat 5.0" but only enabled
SELinux after upgrading to F23.  This bug keeps making me want to go
back to "disabled" but then I come back to it and do some more
googling.

My last attempt to fix it was with:

(reformatted to easier reading)
dnf reinstall 
libselinux-utils 
selinux-policy 
libselinux-devel 
libselinux-python3 
libselinux.i686 
libselinux-python 
selinux-policy-targeted 
rpm-plugin-selinux 
libselinux.x86_64

Then a reboot to do the relabel and run with "permissive" to debug. It
had lots of issues.  I suspect that most were simply that I was doing
working as the admin for my machine and that was not properly set.

My question:

Can anybody suggest a series of steps to put my F23 SELinux
installation in line with the default workstation install of F23?

Note that I was previously running:
setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1
setsebool -P httpd_read_user_content 1
I happen to have a personal use web server running out of /home/httpd
and I would rather leave it there since /home is a partition.  The
point being that I am fine with running the basic allows that SELinux
Troubleshooter identified when I first enabled it.
