Secureboot support does *NOT* limit your freedom as long as it is
optional (the default setting does not matter).

You are either making more complex for everyone or for those that want
do develop kernel development, run out of tree drivers etc.

In case enabled secureboot is the only option (i.e we somehow refuse
to boot with it disabled) then (and only then) you can talk about
removed freedom otherwise this is just FUD.
