For the journal you always keep all log history in it's original

On low-bandwidth systems, like laptops or diskless nodes, it's a
performance hit to generate the log entry in the first place.  It's
really important to be able to configure the system to *generate* a
minimal amount of communications.  Being able to filter the results
later is a separate issue.
That's a very good point: many systems do not fall into the 'infinite disk' desktop-like category. Case in point: embedded systems like Beaglebone, Rasberry Pi, etc.: their entire disk is 2GB of flash storage. Logging is still useful for them but needs to be very flexible and minimal.

We could say that Fedora just isn't interested in them, but that would be a mistake. There's nothing technological that precludes Fedora from running them (they often run Debian), and the spirit of discipline and efficiency that such small systems require would be a good  thing even for the desktop.
