I too agree that python should not become a requirement of a linux system, by making it integral to bootup.
There are however other new bootup systems that look promising and don't require python. One that caught my eye is Upstart. It's a replacement for systemvinit which runs the existing startup scripts in parallel (where possible). They also have plans to develop new startup scripts more suitable to such a system in the long run. I don't have the technical knowledge yet to know if this is really desirable in Fedora or not, but it seems worth considering.
Here are the articles I've been reading:

I agree with you. We (at least me) not need a "PyOS" :)
