As you write it, this is an unreasonable demand: who judges it? I
suggest that there are some who will never accept that alternatives to
non-free packages meet all the needs of our users until everything is
in main. If you are willing to let consensus decide, then the converse
"drop" proposal will stand or fall accordingly and this serves little
purpose.
However, you "second this proposal" rather than "second this
amendment"? I am truly confused about what this proposal is. We have
the OP's beliefs about what is best, but not a clear statement whether
he actually is proposing afresh or amending the "drop"!
