I think it is beyond question that Fedora's reputation (if nothing else) has
been damaged by this incident.

Red Hat's response has not done much to mitigate that damage and may have
actually increased it.  Regardless of whether you are in favour of their
response or opposed to it, or even somewhere in between, the mere fact that
this debate is being held makes that point self-evident.

This needs to be brought home to the Red Hat management, and that's where the
community representative's role comes in.

We're here debating this issue.  How many others are reading about this issue
and saying, "I'll look elsewhere".

It's unfortunate and much of this fallout was actually avoidable.

Nobody here wishes Fedora any ill.  If we did, we wouldn't be here.
