Where is this secret firmware code which was developed by the OpenBSD project? I only see secret firmware code developed by hardware vendors. The above policy applies to the base system code. It does not apply to ports and packages of third party software, i.e. anything listed by pkg_info. Take this discussion to the hardware vendors. Venting on this list as you did does not help anyone and actually makes things worse for the entire free software community because it creates a toxic environment.
