These are not simply statements about what was easier for you.
They are general propositions which you presumably believe to be true.

They are not true.


Has anyone actually had trouble with fedora's automatic
dual boot setup on an existing windows box since that
size computation bug in FC2 days?

None whatsoever for me with FC-5 on hdb and Windows XP on hda.
The machine is an HP-Compaq EVO, with GRUB installed in the
MBR of hda.  The difference might be that my machine doesn't
have any of the Compaq recovery software on it.  It was a used
machine purchased with a fresh install of Win XP Pro on a disk
that had been wiped clean.
