Actually, only Debian "main" is intended to be 100% dfsg-free
software.  The entire composition of Debian "the system" is up to
individual users/developers/volunteers and how they choose to compose
their particular parts of the whole.  Imposing a singular objective on
users'/developers' rights to make self-actualized decisions on "their
own system" is ultimately an inhibitor to freedom, and well
counter-productive to your own self-actualized pursuit of your own
vision of freedom.

Thanks,
