Practically speaking from an enduser standpoint who: - Likes to self-host stuff for homelab purposes - Has business needs for shipping self-hosted services in airgapped and on-prem solutions where SaaS isn't available. Every piece of BSL licensed software that I run (CockroachDB, Couchbase, MariaDB, Sentry, etc) are all open source to me. I can read the code, I can contribute, and I can track changes being added by others. Your metaphor doesn't hold up because from an user standpoint this IS opensource. I'm not creative enough to come up with a good metaphor but it'd be something closer to: "I've created a community book collection that anyone is free to take from. But you aren't allowed to take the books and sell them"
