Hindsight is a fabulous thing, I suspect the anaconda developers would agree with you looking back. Its a large body of code dependent on a lots of pieces.

And with it will go Fedora's ability to support a lot of new hardware moving forward and I don't believe that's good for anyone. The developers have done a lot of work to make it easily handle a vast amount of use cases and I think its great the work they've done. The hardware is coming so its pointless for us to stick our heads in the sand.
Besides this thread is a about beta slip. Not pros and cons of already approved feature.
