I'm sorry if you felt insulted from my comment, that wasn't my intention at all. From my perspective, it's pretty much a complete "no", because you've contextualized the term "open source" to mean something different to what the reader initially thought of at the time of reading the headline. Furthermore: a question as the headline will always be a clickbait, as readers will always want to have it answered. Just to be clear, I'm not saying that this was blogspam. It's something you've clearly thought about before putting it in writing and it's well reasoned.
