If those files weren't split into their own packages, the updated/new firmware-misc-nonfree would've contained the firmware of the 'old' misc-nonfree + nvidia-graphics + intel-graphics + mediatek/ralink + new files that would otherwise have been added for misc-nonfree.

You should've seen a NEWS entry informing you of the changes. If that didn't happen, that's a problem/bug.

And the kernel size growing bigger contributed to that becoming a (bigger) problem. (There are bug reports about that) When I set up my system, I made /boot 2G because I foresaw this problem (and I intended to do a bit more with kernels then the average user). I think a very valid argument can be made to change the default in d-i, but to be blunt: you *accepted* the *defaults*. But most people are probably not as experienced with Debian as the two of you which in turn would make me point out the same problem, but be more subtle/ gentle about it. Still, "No space left on device" is not a packaging problem.
