It is really a lot more difficult than you might think.  Doing this 
"in-house" would put a stress on the already overworked releng team.  
The mirrors would need more space to store these extra ISOs.  
Bandwidth would be needed for mirroring and end-user downloads.  
Efforts would need to be spent doing QA on these respins.  All of 
these tasks would detract developers and testers from working on the 
next Fedora release and maintaining the current ones.

Not to mention--there already is a project to do respins, Fedora 
Unity.  Ask them how much work it has been.  If you want to improve 
their distribution method, then help them out instead of complaining 
that Fedora should do the work instead.  Perhaps you could start your 
own mirror with ISO downloads of Fedora Unity respins.
