You've also made grand statements about world domination, or desktop market share that you must know yourself are laughable at best. You've refused to acknowledge that there are other alternatives in the Linux landscape already doing the exact same thing you want Fedora to do. And you've refused to articulate why every distribution must follow this same course of action. Linux already has healthy choice for everyone. You're trying to take choice away from people. You're trying to take the choice of having an open source only distribution away from the people that would choose it. Please just go promote one of the other distributions that already embraces your vision, there is no reason to try to convert Fedora.
