Um, can you give me an example of a package in contrib that this
argument does not apply to?  If what you are saying is a good way to
think, then we should indeed not bother having contrib at all, right?

If there *are* playable levels available for quake2 (which need
nothing in the way of non-free game data) then of course it belongs
(along with those levels) in main.
