I am not sure I buy this argument. By the same argument, we should also not call the OS "Fedora Linux" because it implies there is also a "Fedora BSD" or "Fedora Hurd" or even "Fedora Windows" 😉 or something.
Personally, I think the reason we should not call the OS "Fedora Linux" is that the trademark guidelines for the term "Linux" specifically say not to:
"When you are using the Linux mark pursuant to a sublicense, it should never be used as a verb or noun. It should be used only as an adjective followed by the generic name/noun. In other words, “Super Dooper Linux OS” is okay, but “Super Dooper Linux” isn’t."

My opinion is that Fedora should be setting a good example for
others to follow, and this is an area where it does not,
currently.
