Tbh i am not a fan of any of those points:
Free from Manipulation: Malicious actors can still make dummy accounts to influcence scores and there is also nothing inherent in the system that truly prevents manipulative content
No Censorship. No tracking: Censorship can still happen on a instance basis through bans or defederation, althought those are also necessary tools for other reasons. And no tracking imo also is missleading, simply because everything posted here is public (including up/downvotes), there simply isn't true privacy in a public forum. It's better in that it doesn't follow you around to other websites and such, but still putting it so difinitive is wrong.
True freedom of speech: Kind of overlaps with the "no censorship" part i think.
What the fediverse is to me is:
Diversity and freedom of choice
Resilience against central control
