As for cruft in the spec files, why not bring a proposal to the FPC to
update the packaging guidelines stating that Fedora spec files must
not contain RHEL/EPEL macros? Then the git branches would be
maintained separately and the spec files might be more easily read.

Because I have reach the conclusion that bringing anything up with FPC is just waste of everyone's time

From their decision making ( which often to me make no sense ) to the time it takes for them to approve and implementing changes to the packaging guidelines ( even from "concrete" proposals ) are absurd and more often then not takes longer time than to actually implement the requested change on affected components which makes it impossible to try to schedule ones free time to make those changes even scheduling to make those changing within our development cycle.

A far more efficient approach is to adapt an ack/nack/patch approach on the packing community mailinglist and dissolve FPC.

FYI, I already did that not a long ago: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/packaging/2013-March/008936.html
