I think this is a false dichotomy, Linux is both free as in beer (unless you choose to pay for it) and free as in speech.

You're right it's not a dichotomy, but the property free-as-in-speech is the one that helps here, free-as-in-beer doesn't matter either way in this case (besides it's initial popularity).
