That's not quite true. Non-trivial effort was spent to make our athn(4) driver work with open source firmware for its USB devices, and to cross-compile these firmware images in our ports tree. That is a better alternative to using a closed binary firmware image. Research into how the world could make more vendors provide source code to their firmware images would be welcome :) Seems to be a hard problem.
