We're generally not fixing things that work. Please handle this upstream and make sure we include upstream versions in Fedora in time. When upstream package meets your requirements and Fedora rawhide is up to date, we can open a discussion. But I sincerely doubt you will be able to present a good rationale to remove that from a released version of Fedora.

Please reopen when the above criteria are met and you are still interested in providing a rationale.
