Fedora Live CD target audience are desktop users, right? I as a desktop user haven't seen any need for / partiton over 8-10 GB. Servers, and other fedora usages may need some other partition schemes but a default home user has huge benefits from a dedicated /home partition. It is probable that new users aren't aware that /home partition as a dedicated partition has advantages and it would be best if anaconda makes the "smart" partition scheme in which /home is a separate partition in LVM volume, or a logical partition. Separate home has lots of advantages that you are aware of, so why not just change the partition scheme to take advantage of that?
