 In short, the ongoing GR isn’t about this disagreement, for which a
 suitable compromise already exists; it is about imposing more
 restrictions on the stable release than on the unstable suite.

I do not know about anyone else, but personally, as someone who doesn't
believe we should be releasing non-free stuff, I also don't think that
developers should be uploading it to unstable.

We need some time to solve the problems that are in main the first
time round I can live with, but uploading new instances of the same
problems to main, and then continuing to allow ourselves to ignore them,
doesn't sound like the path to a Free operating system to me.

I believe that part of the problem is that we are not all here to create
a free operating system. I have the impression that some developers
merely wish to create an operating system, or perhaps a
'free-enough-for-me' operating system.
