That's great, for people who already know what to do. The problem is for people who try to install dkms or akmods and then it doesn't work. There are plenty of people who use dkms or akmods modules but don't compile anything themselves (and those people are less likely to understand the kernel-devel issue).
which issue? you get the most recent kernel-devel and that's itif you don't reboot to the most recent kernel installed on your system before biuld dkmos/akmod modules - bad luck - but how is that a Fedora problem at all - both are helpers in case of wrong hardware decisions and so you need in the worst case to ivent 10 minutes of our time you saved by bouy random broken hardware
that *is not* a Fedora problem at all - period

I think the more "correct" solution (read to the end) would be to somehow prioritize the kernel-devel package (possibly multiple) that matches the installed kernel(s). kernel-debug-devel is never the "correct" choice when only standard kernels are installed, but it gets installed because of alphabetical order; this ordering is one way to get something useful installed instead. This of course is pie-in-the-sky and doesn't match with how dependencies can currently be declared and resolved, AFAIK honestly that is a *non* problem at all * if you need to compile modules you need kernel-devel * if you *once* had it installed yum7dnf will keep it up-to-date
