I agree. I usually keep them around for a couple of releases especially
when it has to do with preserving an upgrade path (support f<xx>-2) or for
more recent EOL'd releases if someone wants to manually keep a package
going for a while.

But I see no purpose in keeping around conditionals for anything past 4
releases ago and I see them sometimes when rebuilding packages. I recently
saw one for Fedora 24...

Thanks,
Richard
