But there are some good cases for a longer lifecycle. For one thing, this has been a really big blocker for getting Fedora shipped on hardware. Second, there are people who really could be happily running Fedora but since we don't check the tickbox, they don't even look at us seriously. I'd love to change these things. To do that, we need something that lasts for 36-48 months.

Is 36 months an absolute minimum for getting onto consumer laptops?

Don't underestimate the difficulty of adding an extra year. 48 months is a *lot* harder than 36.  36 is a lot harder than 24 or 27 (2 years plus 3 month upgrade window).
