Why does "the community" expect everyone to adhere to its social expectations despite the text of the license not requiring that adherence? Not everyone is a part of "the community," some people just want to make or buy decent but inexpensive 3D printers. I'd have not lost respect for Prusa if the statement had been, "Unfortunately, I'm not making enough from this to continue doing it as fully open hardware, sorry." Instead the statement reads as, effectively, "Others are stealing from me, so I can't make more fully open hardware, sorry." And that's wrong--he gave it to them, they didn't steal it!
