It doesn't have the features that are necessary for Fedora systems to actually be able to boot. It'd work on Workstation, maybe, if they think their users will never need to know they're even using a bootloader, and won't put /boot on LVM or LUKs encrypt it. Additionally, the theoretical proposal discussed earlier in the thread was to add it as an alternate option, which users could ELECT to trying out, not to make it the default bootloader. Probably because it doesn't meet the needs of actually being able to boot Fedora systems. -- John M.
