I’m not convinced that should be the case. Any business endeavor carries risk, whether its basis is open source software, closed-source software, or any other product type, and one shouldn’t have an expectation of any level of success.
There are fortunately many success stories relating to open source software, so from my perspective it’s unclear that anything needs to change.
