== Summary ==
Dnf team wants to change a default setting for the repo option
`skip_if_unavailable` to `FALSE`.

  The default behavior could be overwritten by a
configuration of each repository or in dnf by configuration in
/etc/dnf/dnf.conf.

Or overridden for specific repositories as needed in mock, koji, or
the individual .repo files. I intensely dislike the exclussion in
fedora.repo: the only reason I can see for it is to enable the Media
repository with no other work and have things kind-of, sort-of work.

The behavior is not new, because it was used already by YUM, and the
behavior is really essential because all Fedora ropos are already
shipped with `skip_if_unavailable=FALSE`.

Which I think was a horrible, horrible idea, for reasons mentioned above.

It sounds to me like you are misunderstanding the setting. When it is set to false, you can't do updates when a repository is missing. It won't skip them. You can only do an update if all repositories are available and can be checked.
