"But, just as importantly, Debian users will receive security updates
and important firmware patches, just like any other installed software."

So, this means that deactivating non-free in /etc/apt/sources.list,
running apt-get update and then aptitude and deleting all Obsolete and
locally installed will guarantee your system does not use any
non-free software according to the DFSG.

Except the BIOS, all of included default firmwares of your hardware,
including the CPU microcode, unless you run on an libre platform with no
proprietary components (quite rare, even the apu2 e.g. has CPU
firmware).

To me, this debate looks a bit void.
