I don't understand what the offer suggests companies do instead?
Service based models (with training, support or integration) also can have perverse incentives on the open source software. To make those services valuable, you need the product to be worse than it otherwise could be.
Additionally, the characterization that open core companies stop improving the open source software and only improve the proprietary software might be true at some firms but is the extreme.
