Has Linux stopped being a multiuser system? No, it hasn't. But Fedora is targeted at the desktop user. And your continuous efforts at stopping any sort of progress for the *common* case is truly frustrating. I've used Linux on all my desktops for 12+ years. Never have I found the root notifications useful in that case. And even if they would have been, you seem to have no idea what a non-technical person would make of them. I'll tell you: nothing. On the other hand, boot speed is a perceived problem by most users, technical or not.
