I don't think we should distribute or recommend s.el in any way.
It would be self-defeating to do that.

This is not a moral issue.  s.el is free software; it is not evil.
But we have to exercize good technical judgment as well as moral judgment.
We don't want people to make their Emacs Lisp code depend on s.el,
because that would not fit into Emacs well.  So we should avoid
encouraging making Emacs Lisp code depend on s.el.
