Why "even harder"? The policy isn't changing. It's the same one that
Fedora has always used.

That depends on whether you value software freedom or not. If you do,
then Fedora is doing exactly what it should be doing, and a few
inconveniences are an acceptable price to pay for maintaining your
political and philosophical opinion.
If you don't -- if all you want is an operating system that doesn't cost
you anything and operates as efficiently as possible -- then, yeah, I
suppose it must sound counter-productive. But, in that case, your
priorities are greatly out of line with Fedora's.
