non-redistributable entirely. By enhancing win32-loader (and creating similar tools for distros/Android/macOS) and promoting that as the primary install mechanism for Debian, we can detect the firmware requirements of the current system and educate the user about those, including the downsides of that firmware being non-free or non-redistributable. If we did this we could even drop the ISOs that contain non-free firmware.
you want debian to be uninstallable on some hardware without a copy of windows? that doesn't seem like a step forward or even a desirable goal.
