I wonder why would one make a headline "Open source collaborative text editors", and then write about online editors which are neither fully open-sourced, nor fully collaborative. And then stop with them, without even mentioning solutions that are both truly real-time collaborative and truly open source.

What do you mean by "not fully collaborative"? Both presented solutions seems like quite collaborative.
Such as?
Well some of the links that others have posted here before me are such examples - starting with Etherpad.
I realize that the OP is about something that works with structured text, but the headline (as is) is just click-bait.

That certainly wasn’t the intention, the title is a bit of a mix of: the initial intent to list all open source collaborative text editors, and then realizing, as I state in the post, that it wouldn’t add much value to have a long shallow list, then deciding to limit the scope significantly, but not wanting to redesign the headline illustration, as so much effort already went into the post (both content and the code behind it) that I just needed to stop working on it and ship it :) Hope that makes sense!
