Your memory isn't quite accurate... ifconfig has never handled multiple IP
addresses on an interface with aliases being used to create separate
virtual interfaces instead.

It is also not a shell over ip but rather a completely different package
with a completely different development history...

This is just yet another example of why net-tools has been deprecated a
long time and that people really need to break their muscle memory and use
iproute2 ...

Is net-tools still in the base fedora install? Probably long since time to
pull it if so... I know el7 doesn't include it in base or core package
groups anymore at least..
