I don't see how bottom-up cannot get this. How different is this from
Debian in that regard for instance?
Debian renegaded on their goal of being a 100% free software system,
they now include non-free software. That is the danger, and it is
very much real.

No, I have been hearing about issues for 8 years already, i.e. as much
time as I have actually been involved in the GNU project.
And I've been involved for 30 years...
