Pure speculation on my part (but maybe you know): would endorsing PureOS be a (failed) tactic to have Debian officially get rid of non-free and contrib (passing the message: "you are that step away from being FSF-endorsed: look at PureOS")? Contrary to PureOS, Debian matters to fulfills FSF's overall goal of freeing computer users: having Debian stop hosting the contrib and non-free sections and refer to them on its web pages (such as https://packages.debian.org and the documentation) would certainly help far more than insisting on the strict fulfillment of every item in https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html
