I think there is a difference of opinion here about how disruptive
those changes are... The mailing list has been pretty calm recently
but I think every prior release has had outbursts of complaints about
previously working hardware breaking from core updates. I realize
that these changes have to be tested somewhere and that fedora may
be the right place for it to happen, but it is a mistake to think that
the distribution is stable enough to depend on for critical work on
a large assortment of hardware.
