Yeah, that's precisely what I'd expect. So it went into RC1.

You could say we (and mostly 'I') did the wrong thing by not just flat
refusing to take the build they offered and requiring them to provide us
with a build that only fixed the blockers and FEs, I guess. That's my
bad. But it's pretty hard trying to hold that line with devs, and I
don't want to cause bad blood with them. I think this case makes it
clear, though, that in future we'd better just be more forceful about
it.

(I also kinda expected that we'd do RC1 much quicker after TC5, and
hence have a bit more time to test stuff with the new dracut - it kept
seeming like it was a day away, then receding further...)
