I see what youre saying but > They think the software is good but the license is holding it down The issue I'm really trying to point out is They think the software is cost free but the license is holding it down Wolfram Engine has always been good, but it seems people are more in a huff because it's priced free but not open source. I.e expecting that if something is given to you at no cost, it also must be open sourced.

Hmm, I see what you mean. I'm under the impression that this isn't the main issue people are having here but what do I know. One other reason why people might be so upset here is the naming of this product. "Free" is commonly used to describe libre software. This is at best an oversight by the marketing team and at worst deliberately set up to deceive developers.
