I agree that there are details to sincerely work out here. I know in earlier drafts the wording of the "commercial" definition was such that it could be read to classify cases like a solo OSS developer who makes $10/month from GitHub Sponsors as "commercial" (and thus assign liability to them). This received substantial pushback from organizations like (as I recall) the Eclipse Foundation and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. I'm not sure where the draft language stands now.
