Out of the 15 features I see in https://supertokens.com/pricing, 7 are only proprietary. That's roughly half of them. Without qualifying the weight of every feature, it numerically raises a significant challenge to your statement.
SAML, OAuth and 2FA strike me as key components for me that are not open source.

So I stand by my words. I feel put off by a wording that makes me believe a project is open source, when it is open core. Even if you don't like open core or argue the definition is not clear (which I'd disagree), at least marketing it as open source so prominently is IMO misleading, and puts me off (and apparently I'm not alone here).
It's fair to have a business model on open source (obviously!) and I wish you all the luck. But being honest about your business model choices should be the #1 tenet.
