You seem to be confusing different concepts here, just because a project is
based on open source software that doesn't automatically guarantee that the
community based on it is a community that values freedom.
My concerns here are exactly because I'm getting the feeling that freedom
is being unnecessarily restricted in Mageia.
And no a choice is definitely not always arbitrary. Choices can be forced
by unsurmountable limitations or technical incompatibilities or they can
be arbitrary (i.e. not objectively necessary).

Is that now the procedure for this?
I would also appreciate it, if you could clarify the procedures with
regards to the council I asked about in my last reply to you.
