50 GB is fairly arbitrary, and was based on the fact that an Everything
install of Fedora right now is ~ 40 GB, plus some room for expansion.
Very few users are likely to do an Everything install so this should
provide plenty of space for upgrades and future growth. Additionally,
this is only a default partitioning suggestion and can always be
overridden by the user.
We discussed how /home would be created during automatic partitioning and
based on the feedback from many people, the above algorithm was determined.
So, the odd 4GB /home in your case is most likely due to your disk being on
the 50GB line.
If you want to keep defaulting to a separate /home partition, how about
doing so only when the disk is above a larger size such as 80 or 100 GB?
