    Here is what you don't see, or at least refuse to consider: a non-free
    add-on which becomes popular could be used maliciously to remove freedom
    from Emacs.  Seen through your spectacles, every user is free to chose to
    use that add-on or not, so there's no problem.

Even if the non-free add on does not go to the malicious lengths
of the microsoft8.dll scenario, it is still a problem for users'
freedom if it becomes popular.
