Uh? Which are those proprietary drivers needed to mount the root

There are professional network cards which require a non-free firmware, e.g. Broadcom.
So if your rootfs is an iSCSI volume you would need the firmware.

Besides that I don’t know any „normal” SATA/SAS controller requiring firmware.

Shade and sweet water!
