Sorry... but that's just plain wrong.

Maybe my use case is odd... but my /boot partition is a *MINIMUM* of 5GB on all of my computers.

Why?

1.) I have a rescue image setup to boot if I need it...
and
2.) I have a ghost image I made right after installing this version of fedora.


I don't see why either of those should exist entirely in /boot. You are allowed further partitions. Nothing in /boot should remain relevant after we get a proper kernel in memory and enough modules to read the rest of the disk.
