i think that difference of opinion hinges on the interpretation of
such "guidelines" as either a "behavioral code of ethics for distro
maintainers" or more plainly "recommended standards for product quality
assurance"

maybe its a bit of both; but it is necessarily the primary concern to
define what qualifies as freely distributable and what does not;
because that underpins any suggestions (whether ethical or merely
practical) for the handling of what is deemed to be not freely
distributable
