Lots of people use Fedora in a server context. If we don't have a
server-focused deliverable, it's really easy for overall project decisions
to lean too far towards desktop use cases and not provide a balanced venue.
(See historical discussions on value of LVM in Fedora, for example.)
Lukas' question can be rephrased, though, to "why keep Server DVD at all, and not just Server netinst"?
I personally see the difference in the fact that Server DVD, even when pruned down, still provides a functional system to install completely offline. That doesn't mean you want to run it offline for a long term, but at least for experimenting or familiarizing, you can. It's also great for creating kickstarts and similar, because you can re-run it constantly and fine tune it with each iteration, without getting slowed down by the network.
