I don't think this is a valid argument, the requirement is that it "must not"
depend on software outside of main, not that it "must" have software in main
on which to depend.

There are in fact free NDIS drivers available.  There have been various,
uncompelling arguments offered so far as to why these free NDIS drivers do
not "count" for satisfying policy.
