But Fedora out-of-the-box is not secured for that already.  An admin
needs to do additional configuration to secure for a "console does NOT
have physical access" and "console user is NOT admin" setup

no - but it makes a difference if you need to care abot 20 or 200 things to secure - many even don't know about sysrq and so would never come to the idea secure sysrq too and so have an unknown door wide open

the users which know about it can enable it
that's the whole purpose of secure defaults
