Unfortunately there is no rescue option on the Fedora Linux
Workstation
installer just the Server and the Everything.
Is this a part of Anaconda or a different package in Fedora Linux?
Rescue is an Anaconda feature:

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/pyanaconda/rescue.py

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/docs/rescue.rst

It is not supported on live media since most of the steps just don't
make sense -- live already sets up the network and you should be able
to
use the regular desktop tools to mount your existing partitions.

Sorry but how does someone with a disability navigate that?
The rescue mode while maybe unnecessary for developers and those well
verse in Fedora Linux, but the inexperienced and the disadvantged don't
get any consideration by your statement. And in the case of this
particular example I cited at the beginning, the person is having MUCH
difficulty navigating the Live USB approach to rescuing their system.

If it does not require too much effort to implement this: +1 for adding a rescue to workstation live images.

On ask.fp you will find many users not sufficiently advanced for doing all this on their own. And explaining such things can consume a lot of time (and in the recent case, did not work at all). Quite sure this can be helpful for many.
