Well, my primary reason not to use Debian is their zealotry/religious

really usable distro.
If Fedora exposes the same effect, it'll soon be not much more than an
"rpm-based Debian unstable".

Well, if Fedora continues the way it currently does, it'll soon be
unusable for me, which would force me to quit.
