I agree that this is a serious scenario that everybody using block lists should be wary about. But I am not fully convinced that it justfies the strong warning grub2-setup emits, let alone the conclusions the Fedora team drew from it. After all, this scenario requires the user to make a serious mistake as root, and we all know that this can have all kinds of really bad consequences. AFAICS, for extX/Linux at least, there is no risk scenario that doesn't involve this kind of serious user mistake.
