After preliminary discussions with CPU vendors, we propose AVX2 as the
new baseline.  AVX2 support was introduced into CPUs from 2013 to
2015. See [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Vector_Extensions#CPUs_with_AVX2
CPUs with AVX2].

In other words, Fedora will be unusable on most HW anything older than 3-4 years.

This is not helpful and furtherly directs Fedora into meaninglessness.
