The Fedora way is to create the best FOSS-only system, in the hope that
one day (soon) the advantages of not bundling closed code (no EULAs,
DRMs, constants adds and other annoyware, unified package system, fully
tweakable and vendor-independent OS) outweight the problems of not
including closed code.

Given that most closed systems spend their time playing with their users
goodwill limits, it's not as far-fetched a goal as it may seem.
