On this specific change, I'm not sure the *updated* default makes sense
either. It still is quite constrained.

I think this is good, but probably too late for some kinds of
decisions.

I think that we should have a general policy for packagers of
far-reaching infrastructure packages (systemd, glibc, kernel, whatever)
that any new restrictions or constraints should be disabled by default
in Fedora, regardless of upstream defaults, until we're able to have a
conversation — here, in the edition WGs, and/or in FESCo, as
appropriate for the particular change.
