I have nothing against dual licensing, but that's not what "enterprise features" are. As for Open Core, there is one case in which I think that's fine: when none of the proprietary parts would be useful at all in an otherwise 100% FOSS environment. For example, if Linux support were FOSS but all the Windows- and macOS-specific code were proprietary, or if a plugin to talk to Bugzilla were FOSS but a plugin to talk to JIRA were proprietary, I wouldn't see a problem.

Open Core usually fails the FOSS community when the company either 1) makes some essential features like OAUTH/SSO or 2FA Enterprise only, or 2) is openly hostile toward open source components that compete with its own Enterprise features. How well would your example companies deal with a PR adding open source macOS platform support, or an open source JIRA bridge?
