The innards of the iso image were different from f36. I can boot
the .iso file itself directly from a grub2 entry with a little
work. I've got a directory named "images" in a partition with the
UUID of 7ad8f114-5b24-47bb-86c6-0b229519d76c and I use this grub2
gibberish:

set data_usb_uuid="7ad8f114-5b24-47bb-86c6-0b229519d76c"

function set_data_usb_root {
    insmod ext2
    insmod gzio
    insmod part_gpt
    insmod part_msdos
    load_env bootvid
    set root='hd0,msdos2'
    search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ${data_usb_uuid}
}

menuentry 'Fedora Workstation Live 64-bit 37 (1.7)' {
    set_data_usb_root
    set isofile="/images/Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-37-1.7.iso"
    loopback loop "$isofile"
    linux (loop)/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora-WS-Live-37-1-7 iso-scan/filename="$isofile" rd.live.image
    initrd (loop)/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
}

This is all actually on a USB stick where I have grub installed,
but with appropriate modification to uuid and partition numbers
(from the hd0,msdos2 thing) it should work from a hard disk as well.

I've got a slew of different iso files on the USB stick and menu
entries for all of them, so it is handy to do installs as well
as rescue operations. Takes a while to get it set up and working,
but is quite useful once it works. I used this info to build it:
