Those who've been around a long time will remember that we've discovered compromises of a Fedora maintainer's account in the past: https://lwn.net/Articles/424484/ Out of an abundance of caution / paranoia, we even later went as far as to force a mass password change and new SSH key creation across all our maintainers: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2011-October/000840.html We got lucky back in 2011 that the impact was not too bad, but luck runs out eventually, so 2fa for maintainers has clear benefits in reducing risk to Fedora and its consumers.
