Well,it's mathematics software, so it's actually really not unreasonable. Fortunately, the rest of mathematics has moved past the seventeenth-century style of "Here's my result, the proof is secret". If Mathematica is intended to be suitable for mathematical research, then its source must be open so that the results are auditable.
Other mathematics software like Sage doesn't have this problem, and is already available for the Raspberry Pi for free, obviating the need to use Mathematica.
