It does not help and I'd even say it makes the situation worse since there's an environment which exists, which works, and lets "Open Source" projects live happily. Only a fraction of developpers might be interesting in having a 100% free system, the same way *some* GNU/Linux users are happy using Nvidia propietary obfuscated drivers, and this mitigates the motivation for rewriting new drivers. The Nouveau project is here, but it took a long time before it started. Lots of geeks are just happy using Androïd and ignore the fact there's a need for a proprietary driver to handle the latest Tegra chipset and globally, the system is just non-free.
