Ututo-e, the 'only free distribution' (NewsForge)

Excuse me, but for two decades Stallman has bee using, by necessity, less than totally free systems. What's so interesting about the fact that he (and the FSF) prefer to continue using the mostly-free distribution they've been using for years while the entirely free but not quite ready newcomer improves is... pragmatic, certainly, but interesting? I can't see it, really I can't. After two decades spent working towards a completely free system, I would think it would be surprising if Stallman weren't very practical about deciding when it was ready... and waiting until it was.
