@Suiseiseki @lanodan @frogzone Oh, I think this is a "technical" issue: the FSF has not yet understood that bootstrapping is a problem. I suspect that part of the reason is that you can modify/replace the bootstrap blobs (tho you have to use those blobs in the process), so if you assume the seeds are honest, it's not as bad as firmware-blobs which you can't modify.
[ As a data point: until version 20, even building Emacs required blobs (in the form of precompiled .elc files). I fixed that in Emacs-21, but back then I did not understand what it meant: I did it only to make it easier to compile after a cvs checkout🙂 ]
