Alex,

Fedora is not Red Hat but a community driven effort. They (RH) sponsor
it but it's a community of developers and users first and foremost.
If you're using Fedora, you're putting your hands and trust in the
community, not a company.
It' s "much ado about nothing" for what comes down to basic human error.
If you want commercial grade support then you may want to look elsewhere.
To be honest, I've seen much bigger commercial companies make worse
mistakes than this and no one was accountable.
Here, the culprit took ownership of his mistake and that's a hell of a
lot better than what I see or have seen in my work life.
And with the fix out now, it's quite a good fix turnover
