Can we please just refer to the license by name ("Functional Source License", or just "FSL"), rather than acknowledging and adopting this new strange (BS) "Fair Source" terminology when talking about licenses? "Source-available" is already recognized and applicable if you feel a need to taxonomize the license.
There is the "Fair Source" industry lobby group closely associated to the license and I suspect the confusable naming may be intentional here, both coming from the same parties.
