I am in love with having a system that boots. And experience shows that
I'm in the grub prompt quite often. Now admittedly, I'm doing kernel
builds and the like, but even when I'm not, I'll often need to stick a
parameter on a kernel boot line or choose a kernel to run. And then
there's the bad upgrade[0] case in which grub proves useful too.

[0] Fedora kernels are generally high quality, but the overall upgrade
"philosophy" (or non-philosophy) espoused on this list means that the
kernel is just one of many packages yum is told never to touch.
