Turning off rhgb and quiet at boot results in the unquiet shutdown, but no more enlightenment.  The screen output looks ok.

Doing a "systemctl poweroff" causes the same hang as the normal poweroff from CLI or from GUI.

I have not yet tried the suggestion to relabel the whole filesystem.  Since this is a fresh install, I would assume that would be unnecessary.

The suggestion to hit the escape key does not work in this case. When the system hangs, I have no keyboard or usable screen to debug with, as the system is almost all shutdown.

I also forced an fsck per one of the suggestions, to no effect.  It still hangs.

I'm starting to suspect a broken ACPI change in the newer kernel, but I'm stuck...

My old Thinkpad hasn't been able to reliably do an orderly poweroff for something like 6-7 Fedora releases. It does poweroff, but about half the time it doesn't park the HD properly, with the resulting audible complaint.

I have the grub menu enabled. My poweroff procedure is to do a reboot, wait until I go back to the grub menu, stop the autoboot timer, and then hold the power key. This reliably shuts everything off, without putting stress on the 10-year old HD.

If you cannot figure out your issue, try this alternate process. It's a pain in the neck, but it might get the job done.
