Agreed, I think we're also seeing a lot of lack of leadership in FLOSS in general right now. Im sure FreeBSD would have an easier time with that, if OTHER bigger OS projects were holding the line too.
I suspect it's kinda a harder call for FreeBSD both because it's a larger project with many more contributors than ElementaryOS or NetBSD.
AND because it's constantly in linux's shadow to a degree. Anything that might put it behind in enterprise, mindshare or relevancy; has to be accompanied by a fair amount of navel gazing.
