Unless you're using a distro like Parabola, which uses a blacklist
scheme for keeping the system clean. If I were using Parabola, I'd have
to remove your-freedom just to use Python and other development tools

I prefer how Trisquel and Guix simply ship without any proprietary
software, and don't bother the user if they go away on their own to
install proprietary programs.
