Well there are some in this thread that appear to support it.  I am
"SELinux agnostic" and currently disable it.  But discussions that took
place on an earlier thread have made me decide to leave it enabled,
possibly in permissive mode, when I install the next Fedora release.

And there are a number of other distros that don't include it, so why
not leave the choice of using a distro with it or without it in place -
after all, choice is one of the good things about GNU/Linux, isn't it.
