FOSS is about trust. Article is spot on.
How about times do we hear, don't trust verify? Closed sourced bitcoin companies are not bitcoin companies...

The article is addressing FOSS vs verifiable/visible code that just can’t be commercially copied. This lets everyone verify 100%, while affording copyrights to dev’s years investment into developing it.

Very based, "source available/verifiable" software is proprietary and NOT free software.

While I agree 100% with FOSS principles I don't think you're going to get rid of closed source companies building on top of Bitcoin just because you don't like it.
The best we can hope for is FOSS alternatives. And by that logic, our efforts should be put towards building those FOSS alternatives. It's one thing to declare the problem, it's another thing to implement the solution.
Satoshi declared the problem in his whitepaper. Then the proceeded to implement the solution. That's the winning formula.

Expecting everyone to work for free is not reasonable. There must be a mix. Direct profit drives invention. Article ignores the time cost of removing incentives.
