If a free installer is still produced and offered alongside the one including non-free-firmware, would you feel more at ease? That sounds like an easy compromise to make, and many people would probably welcome it. Debian would recommend the one with non-free-firmware, for the purposes of enabling users to install on current hardware, but both would be available.
