Thanks for the clarification. I believe UE4 is still a good example of how the PR-bias towards anything 'open-source'. All it took was a few headlines with "Unreal" and "open-source" and I naturally grouped it with the likes of Blender and Godot.

Right but all that means is that Epic were able to exploit a lack of understanding. Not really that noble or exceptional. There is a PR bias towards open source because it’s seen as a selfless act to provide free software. Conflating that with commercial software such as UE4 actually takes away from that since it dupes the unwary.
