yes that is the gist of the FSDG as it relates to software - the FSDG
does not make that distinction for data files though - it only requires
those to be freely distributable such as "freeware"

i think the suggestion here is to apply that same rigor to all data
files as well, in the name of "free culture" - unfortunately, the
standard "free culture" definition does not actually do that either -
it actually does consider "freeware" to be "free culture"; which
renders it quite hollow and redundant in the context of a distro that
already adopts the FSDG standards
