My subjective measure is "distro works for me without major effort".
Reality is: This doesn't apply.

koji, bodhi, packagedb, acls, freezes, bugzilla, trac, wikis, mails to
rel-eng/<committee dejour>, the "incident", the triagers, server
downtimes, mirror latencies, bugs not getting fixed, ...
All together (not worth mentioning all the bugs and nits they suffer
from) have a massive impact on effectiveness. Openly said, it has hardly
ever been less effective to contribute to Fedora as it is in recent
past.
