Who cares? If X lives on tty7 and you get an extra flicker, then that's
bad. If it lives on ttyX and it doesn't flicker, it's good.

The sort of person that even knows what a tty is, is probably in a
position where they can change it to whatever they want. Seriously, had
anyone done any research on the number of Fedora users who even use
ttys?

This isn't a community decision decided by +1 or -1's. This is the
package maintainer (and upstream) changing with a good reason.
