On the pro side

I'd vote for a configuration switch, if at all, which is on by default.
From a marketing perspective and branding, I would vote to keep it as
well, and as Heiko suggested, a configuration switch. I have had some
boxes where the bios branding would come up and I switched it off, but
later back on ... it just made me feel more comfortable knowing that
something was loading with a banner on.
But, also, IMO, it allows the marketing team a way of solidifying brand
recognition when LibreOffice boots up and even sneaking in an extra
message or sub-line if we wanted to.
But definitely yes to a switch, which would be a good choice.
Cheers,
Marc
