For me, the best response to this is gNewSense - Dell can control the
hardware, so there's really no need to support distributions that ship
non-free software or binary blobs, including any of the ones on the
list or Debian.

Debian don't ship non-free software. They provide optional and non-obvious access to it, thus aiding freedom of choice for the user.

Obviously, including non-free by default is unacceptable...
