Because I am doing it the way I learned back when I suffered
with RHEL clones.

And it works

"…now". That's the operative word here. It might work now, but it will not work forever.

You've finally managed to get it to work, it seems, by having NM manage it. Although it seems that right now you can still own your network interfaces yourself, it's a certain bet that at some point things will only work with NM under Fedora, and the response to any complaints will be "well, you're free to choose some other distro which works without NetworkManager".

The same thing, pretty much, goes with everything else. Here's another, very similar situation right now, which is rolling your local iptables rules versus firewalld.

I saw the handwriting on the wall, on that account, one several releases ago, and slogged my way through converting what I was doing with iptables into the equivalent deal with firewalld.

You have to always keep your ears to the ground, for these kinds of things. Anytime you hear about a new bit of technology that gets introduced as an alleged successor and a superiod alternative to something that's already here, don't quite take it, on the face value, any assurances that the old ways still work. They might still work now, but they won't work forever. Rest assured. So, start figuring out what you gotta do, while you still have some time…
