GNU and FSF is not the only trustworthy body. So, suggesting GNU as the only credible source of the sacred books and terminology is not a good idea. What about OSI, what about all those open source and free software initiatives and concepts which do not relate to GNU or FSF. There are many flavours of open source and free software, GNU is just one of them.
