I was trying to make a point that we don't have a way to check the initial

well, we do: https://getfedora.org/security/
Right, but it's not automatic, and requires an existing known-good
system, which is the actual 'root of trust' here. This cannot be assumed
about a flash drive, which is why the automatic image check is hard.
I guess it would involve a secure boot into a fedora signed shim that
* retrieves the checksum over a verified TLS network connection
* checks the image against that.
