I don't know about now, but ~4 years ago installing from scratch I tried SELinux and after hours of configuring it still wasn't recognizing some hardware. Then I tried OpenBSD or FreeBSD, and it was up and running with minimal configuration. YMMV.

You discovered the difference between "works" and "can be made to work". There are many people who still believe they are synonymous.

I've worked with SELinux in the past, it works but it can be a real pain to get up and running and there's a bit of a learning curve associated with it.
