An alternative action would have been to move bash-doc, emacs and
other packages that are going to be altered by this decision to
non-free rather than removing the documentation and leaving us with
none.

That seems like a perfectly reasonable course of action given the
circumstances.

I just can't understand why people think it's reasonable to just take
the documentation away. It's dogmatic in the extreeme.
