This is good advice if you are fanatically waiting for the new kernel to appear and install it within the first 5 minutes after hitting the repositories... In that case it is unlikely that the corresponding kmod-nvidia will be available, and akmod can kick in to save the day. But if you are updating Fedora once a week or so, chances that you get into that "gray area" where kernel is available while kmod still isn't, are very small. It hasn't happened to me in years.
Normally I update every morning because, being retired, I have the time to keep my box properly updated. (Letting it run while breakfast's cooking helps.) At least on in three times that there's a new kernel, the kmod isn't ready until the next morning. And, as I live in California and I'm not exactly an early riser, I doubt that I'm getting the kernel right after it's released, but it's always possible.
