You could make the same arguments for user names, unix permissions or
file location — a lot them have different values in the wild than in
Fedora and yet we store our policy in rpm.

It all goes down to whether we want to make selinux a first-class
citizen, provide good selinux support by default, and make Fedora policy
choices, or keep it in the current netherworld where most Fedora
packagers do not feel concerned and users learn to add selinux=false to
their grub config.

There is no middle ground. Middle ground is just a way to avoid fixing
problems, confuses people and makes them avoid the thing like the
plague.
