Yes, but there is requirement to install in order to use ob-sql.el
__with :engine set to non-free option__.
So, I can envision that someone who decided to use ob-sql.el and
considering between free and non-free engine may prefer non-free one. Of
course, it is not very strong argument, but the boundaries are fuzzy in
this area.

Sure. That's what we usually do - just use whatever REPL is available
for a given ob-* language. Just a question of someone sending a patch.
