further clarification of intent 

people sometimes have very black-or-white thinking, so it's
important to put them in the right frame of mind.

libreboot's documentation is very carefully crafted along
the narrative:

if free software can be used, it must be used.

the purpose of libreboot is precisely to provide free software
exclusively, when possible, on any given mainboard. it is
therefore paramount that any reference to PSDG must be made
while stressing those values in the most unambiguous way
possible, because otherwise people will make wrong assumptions;
for example, our friends from massuchussets sometimes claim
that we are a proprietary software project.

which is laughable, but their propaganda is very powerful,
so ours needs to be even stronger.
