Doesn't this Commons Clause goes specifically against one of the core principles of Free Software? The whole idea is that a Free Software license should not restrict what you can do with said software.

Even the most restrictive FS licenses like GPL will not prevent me from selling consulting services around the product licensed under it.

If you combine this clause with a Free Software license, it sounds to me like it is no longer FS. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
