Right, they mean that, as a user, you are not free to use the software for any purpose, nor are you free to change it in any way. Whether open source is morally/ethically better is separate from its definition.
It's fine for you to say you only want to support non-commercial use, but if you call it "Open Source" it dilutes the definition.
