I am very interested in allowing local people to be empowered -- I am 
glad that there is a French Fedora team that understands all the events 
in France, and that can come back to someone like me or FAMSCo and ask 
for resources.

I am glad that there is a LinuxTag and FOSDEM organizational team that 
does similar things.

I want that to continue to grow, and I want people all over the world to 
be able to get resources for local events and to promote Fedora locally:

This is one of the goals of the Red Hat Community Architecture team, 
which I am a member of.

But all of that is very different than going through the process of 
setting up a separate legal entity for each country, which I personally 
don't think gives us much value.  But that is just my opinion.  ;)
