I think you are right there. Fedora did in fact reduce the number of VT's
somewhere along the line. Yet I can't remember why either. It's probably on
Google somewhere, but to be honest I can't be bothered looking into it right
now.

I can't see a decision affecting me personally as I really only sit in one
terminal at a time anyway. Sometimes two, but rarely any more than that.
And tbh, I can't see any reason to change the current number. There appears
to be no apparent reason to do so. Not that anyone's brought forward yet
anyway.
