Correct, we could - Similar things are being done at several places in Fedora.
Somewhat oversimplified, the basic requirement is all shipped binaries must be built from OSI-compiliant sources-code and no closed-sources be used.
Well, the "tools" are totally opensource and can be built standalone, libXNVCtrl will interface with the Nvidia X.org driver; but what is the benefit of having them in Fedora if they can't be used without the proprietary blobs?
Currently there's a policy that game engines cannot be shipped in Fedora if the content is not free as well; shouldn't the policy be the same (i.e. allow the engines without content or remove the tools as well)?
