I don't completely agree with the distinction, even though Stallman is the authority. There's still a lot of GNU code used in most Android installations, and a full Debian install only requires installing and running an app. Maybe GNU-available/Linux would be a better name. Although the default is minimal free software, it's easy to add F-droid and anything else you want, because Linux is still GNU GPL-licensed and and still has the freedoms associated with it (despite restrictive baseband and other software.) So in the context of free software dominating hardware, it's still a good example.
