Users don't differentiate between say htop and geany as much as the designers seem to have assumed. They treat them both as essentially "applications". However it doesn't fit the definition that GNOME Software has and ends up being not included. There are also users who love the ratings and additional metadata that GNOME Software brings and they wouldn't get any of that with GNOME Packages or yum. dnf search is even more limiting since it doesn't offer even the rudimentary filtering by name that yum offers. GNOME Packages also is not included by default. In other words, GNOME Software solves a problem very well but unfortunately doesn't solve the problems that the target audience has that much.I don't think the solution is merging the GNOME Software and Packages UI's into one nutty experience.
surely, make a tab "extended" or however you call it and you are done - however, a default software installer not showing a large perecntage of usefool tools and applications because they are not shiny enough is ridiculous and even more need install a additional one
