You changed the rules. You require a Signed-off-by:. Fedora can no more
add a signed off by than you can. It's not their code nor Red Hat's code
any more than they "own" the kernel because they pay someone to work on
it.

And zillions of Nvidia users would have been worse off.

It's really simple: if you want to merge it *you* pull it and sign it off.
If you aren't prepared to do that then ask why Fedora should, its not
their code either.
