Well, Core has conflicts with other core packages afaik. So the above

Is that true?
The kernel package, for example, has a boatload of versionned conflicts
to prevent installation on a system with the wrong userspace level.
Void.
The right userspace tools are part of Core, so these conditional conflicts
only become active under corner-case conditions and then create artificial
hurdles.
There have been times in the past where I wanted to try a rawhide kernel
on a current-release Fedora version to see if it fixed an issue I was
having. The versioned requires/conflicts that the kernel has were very
useful at that time, as it told me what else I needed to pull from
rawhide to do the experiment.
