You really need to keep up.  For many years Fedora devs (kernel, and
bios) have spearheaded the effort to make Linux in general, and Fedora
specifically a priority on desktops and laptops.  Tremendous amount of
work went into the kernel and UEFI compatibility, particularly the way
M$ was pushing for "secure boot".  So much so, Fedora kernels were
controversially secure boot compatible earlier due to a (digital)
signing agreement with M$.  Fedora has also contributed significantly
in making FOSS radeon drivers reliable, and advanced noveau despite
hostility from NVidia.

As for recent developments, if Fedora doesn't want to support regular
installs, how come ThinkPads are going to be shipped by Lenovo with
Fedora pre-installed?

And you still haven't read the BZ I linked in my OP, and going on and
on about hypothetical scenarios.  Please inform yourself better.
