Not to bikeshed, but it's also tiny. Since you won't be maintaining it,
don't have to review it and don't have to install it, what's that harm
in it's inclusion?
The actual harm is "waste of resources".

However, my actual points behind this:

Is Fedora supposed to be a "hardly useful" packages cult which adopts any package? Provided the quality of certain packages and how certain reviews are being performed, at least I can't deny this thought.
