I was just agreeing with your remarks.
I prefer to keep F-Droid client in the FSD, and F-Droid server software 
if it's portable FOSS.

I consider content (apps) hosted on F-Droid's server machine similar to 
documents hosted by Apache or Nginx: Good or bad selections to recommend.
AFAIK F-Droid collective maintains and hosts separated repositories for 
FOSS and other not-recommended and warned apps (disabled by default).

Warning could be a measure, same as F-Droid folks do with their 
published application descriptions.
