I do realise Fedora includes some technical bricks necessary to provide
the service. However :
1. nobody knows about them. Startups do not have time for investigating
desktop capabilities, if it's not easy to find, deploy and use it does not
exist
2. last I've seen, the integration of the server parts was not sufficient
and required quite a lot of operator work (but it may have changed)
3. the server parts are irrelevant if the desktop parts do not use the out
of the box with minimal operator/user work

Again, startups do not care about "the best technical infra" (Fedora
angle) or "the most robust and versatile infra" (RHEL angle). They care
about "the quickest and easiest way to get devs to churn code".
