This is good general advice, although not necessary for Fedora.
man init (which is the same page as for telinit) says:
The init binary checks if it is init or telinit by looking at its pro-
cess id; the real init’s process id is always 1. From this it follows
that instead of calling telinit one can also just use init instead as a
shortcut.
This may not be true for other *nixes.
