I don't think that is the right way to understand this issue.
It's a judgment call, not a logic problem.

The question is not whether ScummVM false into the category of "0 free
games need it" or "1 or more free games need it".

The question is whether the free games that need ScummVM are
significant enpugh to change the judgment from "basically this is a
way of running old nonfree games" to "this makes senss in the Free
World."

There is no sharp line between the two.
