I think some kernel developers take to much responsibility, is there a bug in a binary driver? Send it upstream and explain to the user that it's a closed

For what it's worth, I don't see any problem with binary drivers from hardware
manufacturers.

Binary drivers from hardware manufacturers are crap. Learn it by heart.

So are the Linux drivers in some cases. My ATI Radeon Mobility video
in my laptop is an example.

If you are going to mount a sanctimonious high horse it is a wise idea
to mount a horse instead of a donkey.
