This argument, whether or not it has merit on its own, has no precedent within
Guix as a reason to exclude a free software program.
I'm sure most of us can name some Guix packages that we dislike because we see
them in some unflattering or uncharitable way. But, we bite our tongues because
Guix has a precedent of accepting freely licensed programs that are minimally
functionally and not malware. Guix has had very liberal package acceptance
criteria at least since I joined, if not since it began, and changing this
precedent should require overwhelming consensus.
If there is a concrete objection (not conjecture or speculation) to this patch
based on the criteria of the FSDG and precedents of Guix package acceptance,
please share it. Otherwise, I think the patch should be accepted.
