Personally, I don't care. If you don't support open drivers, you have to provide first class drivers on Linux on day 1, because NVIDIA's majority of business is running on Linux already.

On top of that, they claim to have the best Linux support, and claim to have best drivers in their class.

So, it's better to act like that and provide support. If any other company has done that, they have been incinerated with the flame of internet's hate thrice already.
