If there is no standard you cannot claim that what we are doing
internal is not appropriate.

Stop singling Fedora out specifically.  You can single out what we are
doing and say is any more non-standard that what other distros are
doing. 'We' aren't making it difficult.. we have a documented set of
packaging guidance. Others are free to adopt it.. why don't you go ask
the other distros to adopt what we are doing as their standard?
Actually no don't do that. I find someone who isn't as abrasive.
