Do you have other words that would say the same, but understandable by a

That's possible, and I am not advocating to let everything go in any
direction, be it only because some of the burden fails on other
packagers (misfiled bugs, complex issues that seems to arise from a
package but in fact comes from another temporarily broken) but a middle 
ground is needed in which developpers, especially from the community can 
also do what they want in fedora to pursue their own (innovative or 
simply usefull).
