That's completely fine... > What is so different in Fedora that we cannot move to this model? ... the problem is saying that this is the only approach. In various upstream projects I maintain, PRs may be used in 99.5% of cases, but there always are cases where a manual merge or a direct commit is the best option. Particular aspect of working in a distro is the number of repos one might touch: it would be very unusual to commit to more than a handful of github repos in a year. It is completely normal to commit to hundreds of dist-git repos in one week when doing a mass change.
