That’s not true at all. Curl is a regular - if horrifying - component of scripts.

And this isn’t “reducing developers power”. There’s literally going to be a “with ancient unused protocols fully intact” version *also packaged by Fedora*. For our theoretical developer, ‘fixing’ curl so it can support Gopher again is one brief command away.
