Given that cloud-init, for example, can configure a system as fine-grained as Anaconda, I think it's more about whether a system is running in a managed or unmanaged environment.

Practically more important seems to me that Anaconda on the workstation live medium is so reduced that you can configure neither the network nor a hostname (only keyboard, storage medium and time zone). Therefore, we need to configure a plausible default hostname on desktops anyways, and the Change Proposal is for server type systems only.

And with server type systems, perhaps we can assume that system administrators knows what they are doing?
