Bad argument, as even with a separate repository these then *will* be mixed.
As you cannot have &quot;free&quot; packages that depend on the nonfree-tainted
in the free repo. Those would have to be put into nonfree-tainted as
well.

So nonfree-tainted will end up having &quot;nonfree &amp; tainted&quot; and &quot;free,
but depends on nonfree-tainted&quot; packages.

I don't see a gain here.
