Its behaviour is very broken, it uses a list generated by repositories 
and it looks at an exclude file for things are known bugs in Debian.

This list is not FSF Free, it certainly does not exist in parallel with 
anything we write.


Essentially nice try, but it fails, and will do so unless it links to 
our list as time goes by.

Even then it has to be along side things that are removed and then let 
back (GLX for instance).

So to discuss it is a waste of energy, what is needed is to fix it, and 
given that it is a moving target I think the best answer to it is to 
ignore its presence on planet Earth.
