No, it doesn't. We give this promise only for our tested and verified open
source packages, but Nvidia is a 3rd party closed source package not under our
control.

Convince Nvidia to publish a real open source driver and your problems are
solved. This is the disadvantage of buying hardware, which needs a closed
source third party driver and requires the user to accept an EULA.

If there is the choice between legal obligations and usability, legal
obligations will always win. There is absolute no room for discussions here.

Our code is open source, so you can modify the transactional-update.service to
auto-agree to all EULAs. But it's then your own problem if you violate the
EULA, no longer other peoples problem.
