On Fedora tty1 is the graphical login, since a long time.
I've managed to avoid that in order that my boot messages tail stays there undisturbed until such time as I've run out of vttys and need to use a sixth, the way I like it, same as last century. Change isn't always improvement.

That sounds like a method that will prevent a DM from running on the same tty as startx would as a first and only X session, as if that hasn't already happened. OT, reading that man page, is setting it 0 how to revert from auto spawning to keeping gettys running on all of tty1-6 as before systemd existed?
I cannot parse this.
There are two parts to it. WRT part 2, as I wrote, OT WRT thread, I looked at the logind.conf man page section NAutoVTs= and was wondering if by setting it to 0 auto spawning vts could be dispensed with entirely so that gettys could run there continuously from the outset as they used to. Full screen sessions with bigger text are good for the eyes, so I use them a lot. I have a problem understanding that man page paragraph.
WRT part 1, I don't see from reading that man page how NAutoVTs= could do anything to enable and/or further a first and only X session regardless how started to run unconditionally on tty7.
