А в чем, собственно, проступок Фарамира, я в толк не возьму? Он же отпустил Фродо и Сэма!

В том, что Фарамир неправильный. Вот как показан характер Фарамира у Толкиена:
Even so, I spare a brief time, in order to judge justly in a hard matter.
But, Frodo, I pressed you hard at first about Isildur's Bane. Forgive me! It was unwise in such an hour and place.
For you must know that much is still preserved of ancient lore among the Rulers of the city that is not spread abroad.
But fear no more! I would not take this thing, if it lay by the highway.
Not were Minas Tirith falling in ruin and I alone could save her, so, using the weapon of the Dark Lord for her good and my glory. No. I do not wish for such triumphs, Frodo son of Drogo.
So fear me not! I do not ask you to tell me more. I do not even ask you to tell me whether I now speak nearer the mark.
I hope you will pardon it to one who has
so far made his orders give way to courtesy as not to slay you or to bind you. I must blindfold you.
But I am not such a man. Or
I am wise enough to know that there are some perils from which a man must flee.
Well, Frodo, now at last we understand one another. If you took this thing on yourself, unwilling, at others' asking, then you have pity and honour from me. And I marvel at you: to keep it hid and not to use it.
Faramir stared at him for a moment in grave astonishment. Then suddenly
he caught him as he swayed, and lifting him gently, carried him to the bed and laid him there, and covered him warmly.
I had no lure or desire to do other than I have done.
