No. Freedom includes also the freedom to not want something.
Many of the best Free Software projects are good because they have
avoided feature bloat -- in other words have declined extensions.
True; but I read his comment to mean "to argue against adding an
extension to a free software program is to try to argue away freedom (of
the other)".
Of course we see both sides; and as has clearly been acknowledged, it's
up to the maintainers and all that they can do is increase the cost of
the fork.
