I have adjusted the description of the change in a way that I think
clarifies this part. Please check if it is better now.

Also I've posted some context in a separate thread [1].

I think the current change is important to Fedora also as a showcase
that we, as a project, care not only about the internal distribution
matters but in some large developments in the "outside world".
That we can also provide a venue for, for example, hardware vendors to
show their newest work.

The rejection is a valuable feedback here, it highlights that it is
not enough to just push a new hardware spec to the market to get it
adopted. But we can also try to find a way how actually it _can_ be
done better.
