We'd still be better to have a single firmware-only initramfs image,
even if it had to have multiple NVIDIA versions for people with those
cards.  The rest of the firmware would be de-duplicated, and there'd
only be one of each version of NVIDIA, where now there are as many as 4
(3 kernels + rescue), or really temporarily 5 (when a new kernel is
being installed).
