Depends on how you define 'user-hostile'. There's already a link to the non-free image on the current installation page, and I wouldn't consider respecting your freedoms as hostile.

So if Debian were some megacorp, someone would already be complaining about the "dark pattern" that puts the link to the directory (n.b. not the actual images) for non-free images down the bottom of that page in small print inside a box labeled like a warning, and calls them "unofficial".
As opposed to making it clear that this is the one you need if you're doing something outrageous like ... using a laptop or something.
