The rescue kernel is another option, right there on the boot menu; if
you actually removed all running kernels, it would be the _only_ Fedora
option (and the only option at all on a system without multiple OSes
installed, so booted by default).
Law of Out of Date Technical Support:
If an expert says "no ordinary user" would ever do a command, they have not worked front line Tech Support recently enough.
Ordinary people in the past have done this, and ordinary people in the future will do this. And it will be the same old tech support nightmare of handling it which will lead to eventually someone implementing a "Do you really want to do that" kind of fix. Since I routinely have to help people who do this I expect that it will be enough of an issue for Red Hat eventually to put in the extra logic again as it is expensive to deal with.
