The problem is that this results in a counterintuitive &&, as in:
%if 0%{?fedora} <= 32 && 0%{?rhel} <= 8
(by de Morgan's law, or if you want to analyze it directly, because 
0%{?rhel} <= 8 will always be true on Fedora).

Then you will always get the conditional for the oldest Fedora (no matter 
what is the %if and what the %else part) because 0%{?fedora} will be 0, by 
design.

The specfiles in Fedora dist-git are either only for Fedora or for Fedora 
and RHEL/CentOS. They are not expected to work on any other distro.
