Another datapoint:
Centos is running the WPA Supplicant daemon. Fedora is not. But is
there a WPA Supplicant daemon in Fedora, or is this function merged into
NetworkManager?
Fedora runs it, in some cases, but it's started by NM on demand when
it needs it, there's also a iwd that replaces it in some situations.
