I just wanna remind folks that Open Core is not the same as Open Source. I didn't look at specifics, but I was triggered by this comment:

> Some people call our strategy "open-core" and that's technically right. Still, I'd rather say that we have two pieces of software: one that is open-source and another that is not. I think that's more honest because we're not trying to hide the fact that we're selling a non-open-source version of our software.

I'm not morally opposed to open core software - and any version of more open source is valuable open source to me - but I think its important we do not conflate the two, just as we need to not conflate other approaches like source available.
