In particular, this would go against the OpenSource spirit and thus
contradict Fedora's objectives.

I don't understand the connection you are making, there. Can you
elaborate?

To build everything from source yourself and not to package other parties binaries, is one of the foundations of an open source distro, such as Fedora.

What your are trying to achieve is to abandon this and to allow foreign binaries in Fedora.

IMHO, this is betrayal of Fedora's fundamental principles.
