It does so more directly by being a PC without Microsoft Windows pre-installed or proprietary BIOS.

Almost always, a majority of PCs for sale have Microsoft Windows pre-installed. In the rare cases that they come with a GNU/Linux operating system or no operating system at all, the drivers and BIOS may be proprietary.

Ubuntu helped enable Purism to exist and they are great for that too.
