Sure but people used "open weight" for weights that were open, because "open source" doesn't make much sense for something that has no source.

Now we have these "open inspired but not open" licensed weights and they want to keep the term.

I'll stick with DS4.1 flash. Open and capable

Open source doesn't mean "anyone can use the source code commercially". Open weights similarly doesn't mean the weights can be used for anything. It just means the weights are open for anyone to download and inspect.
