He's trying to normalize this by actively repeating the crazy. Not to mention that Canada itself is comprised of multiple provinces that are mostly larger than many US States, so this would be more than 51st state (sorry this bothers me a bit even with all the crazy).

It seemt to me this flows from Musk declaring that advertisers leaving Shxitter was illegal after he said fuck you to them and that he didn't need them. It's the most childish, entitled behavior possible. Think of it like a 4 year old temper tantrum and it all start to make sense.

The proposal also recommends using orange ink instead of green.

Not denying that's possible, but do you have any reputable sources?

Perhaps not. But the flag allows for direct I/O for data, bypassing buffers which can be overrun with certain size blocks, potentially causing dirty buffer depending on the machine being used. My understanding is that it's "more reliable" for writing (especially on shitty USB Flash drives) and getting the exact ISO properly written.

But it could be useless all the same - I'm just pointing out that OPs command is not the one recommended by Fedora when writing their ISO. Also OP is less likely to pull the drive before buffers have flushed this way.

Don't use Fedora myself, but it may not be a hybrid ISO that becomes bootable when written... so I looked and you are missing a flag

dd if=/path/to/image.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=8M status=progress oflag=direct
