Many parts of the system are open, and more are coming. We're just not savvy enough to be able to open source the whole thing and also continue to afford to work on it.

Sounds like you work on exclusively open source software. You're lucky!

I explicitly choose it, it’s absolutely nothing to do with luck. Software freedoms are some of our most important freedoms.

All of us who know how to program and build good products have such a privilege.
