I understand it but a couple of wiki pages don't serve that case very well.   I could setup a redirect now in a couple of minutes and the argument is lost.  If you want to argue that point, the MUCH better example is proprietary firmware.

We clearly have made a concession there and you could argue that we are extending that concession to cover more types of non-free software.   I don't necessarily agree but atleast it is a relatively strong argument compared to some random wiki pages.
