After having offered the possibility of bringing in non-free firmware during the installation, shall devuan also offer to install non-free drivers for your video card? And what about flash plugins then, or Skype? The "end user" might want to choose them, so should we offer her/him to install them? This was indeed the Ubuntu-way of dealing with non-free software, and I personally don't like it at all. I would rather prefer having a clear, neat and discernable separation between what is free software and what is not, as in Debian, and to have by default only free software available, with non-free stuff in a separate repo which requires separate and explicit setup to work.
