If all of the users that use Fedora for reasonably important tasks (not mission critical) stop using it, it will lose all of the real use testing and feedback to upstream developers that Fedora is good for and Linux needs. My feeling is that is likely to be happening ... I think Fedora should have a carefully balanced position between the mission critical systems and completely play only systems.
