We've reached the point where people are shitting on nV for the
quality of their drivers, and a kernel that has closed-source drivers
loaded is "tainted", and the last release in which we shipped
ndiswrapper was buster.
That happened because those solutions were all incredibly painful,
depending on the kernel version in use, losing compatibly during every
second kernel upgrade, and didn't work cross-architecture. Users hated
that.
non-free firmware is silent and painless. Users don't care.
tl;dr: The situation is totally different, we should not compare apples
and peaches here.
