Did you read what I wrote? I said the dfsg is an encapsulation

Whether you like it or not, the DFSG is a statement for the
goals of the project; it is an affirmation, a vow, a compact, and a
contract which the project has with the community.
If any one finds this horrendously onerous, then perhaps
Debian is not the right project for them.
