The thing with Schedule F, EO 13957, is that Trump used it to embed his cult into vital cabinets, like DOJ, and in particular US Attorney David Weiss, and the EO also enabled him to replace civil servants with his cronies, and the schedule F employees were now protected civil servants, that is the difference between Trumps EO and Andrew Jacksons cronyism, his appointees were not protected.
There is irony here, because President Biden's first act was to issue anEO 14003, that among other things, negated Trump's EO 13957.

He was sworn in on February 22, 2018.

Biden's negation of Trump's EO, has come back to bite him when Merrick Garland, another bipartisan mistake, appointed David Weiss, who jumped up and basically said, "choose me coach" as Special Counsel to prosecute a civilian citizen.. Hunter Biden.
Has any Special Counsel ever been appointed to prosecute a civilian?

There is a difference between Jackson's patronage system and Schedule F.
For one thing the patronage system still exists in the form of Senate confirmation
