It also uses the term "older machines" (which is still > misleading). I have adjusted the description of the change in a way that I think clarifies this part. Please check if it is better now. Also I've posted some context in a separate thread [1]. I think the current change is important to Fedora also as a showcase that we, as a project, care not only about the internal distribution matters but in some large developments in the "outside world". That we can also provide a venue for, for example, hardware vendors to show their newest work. The rejection is a valuable feedback here, it highlights that it is not enough to just push a new hardware spec to the market to get it adopted. But we can also try to find a way how actually it _can_ be done better.
