Indeed. If I want to flash various bits of hardware I have, I need to
reverse engineer the flash method first. This isn't necessary if I have
a driver that uploads an image on every boot. If the firmware isn't in
flash, I'm completely screwed.

Burned-in software is, in general, non-free software. It would be as

anything, we should be happy that manufacturers /are/ starting to move
