If we're going to do a survey, I can think of bigger questions to ask than that. :) But, in any case, this is certainly not the way Fedora is supposed to operate.
Change for its own sake isn't good, and I have had my share of frustrations with systemd and some degree of pain with journald growing pains too, but, from the page describing Fedora's mission, " The Fedora Project always strives to lead, not follow."
(Just to mention this: we are neither the pioneer on the no-default-syslog feature nor on no-default-sendmail... A lot of other distros stopped installing an MTA by default a long time ago -- including Ubuntu since 2007 or so -- and some others have switched to only-journal mode already too -- for example ArchLinux
So, we are just following on these ones, on the sendmail thing even with a 6 year lag...)
