Why do you want OSI to weigh in? The license describes itself as not Open Source, according to https://commonsclause.com/

> It this “Open Source”? [sic]

> No, at least not by the official definition set forth by the OSD. Applying the Clause to an open source project will transition the project to “source-available”.
