That's the only plausible conclusion I can draw from your own words.
AFAICT from your messages, the absolute minimum that would satisfy you
is for OpenBSD to never mention anywhere, in any manner (except perhaps
a negative one), anything which is non-free (by your definition).
Since this would require explicitly rejecting any proposed addition to
the ports collection which would install something which is 'non-free',
you do require erecting barriers.

Sorry, but that's nonsense. "Mentioning" and "recommending" are very
different things, and what OpenBSD does is no more than mentioning.

It would be closer to reality, but would still massively overstate the
case.
