a requirement. The point I was trying to make instead of suggesting
that security support was a requirement was that we should exercise
care not to expose our users to the risk of potentially obtaining

Yes, the security FAQ addresses the non-free issue. This doesn't
make the situation any more desirable. At least not for me.
