Just as a note, Workstation isn't a spin, it's a Fedora Edition:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Editions

framing it as if it's "just another spin" is a bit off. Its prominence
is quite intentional and the whole Fedora.next / editions thing was
precisely about picking some specific 'flavors' of Fedora and giving
them prominence over the others.
