As Donald implied there is a lot of work involved in review a distros so I imagine that this was missed. A primary difference is a willingness to correct mistakes, which from Don's email it seems that they have been so this seems a good opportunity to raise the issue in the PureOS bug tracker along with a CC to report-nonf...@fsf.org. Earn a GNU Buck. :)
