Do you want full open source? Or allow enterprise software? pick one.

How are those mutually exclusive?

Enterprise software ends up as something invariably so specific to the company using it that it doesn’t matter if it’s open-source or not - absolutely no-one could extract any value from it than the original company and whatever kafkaesque internal processes lead to its development.

Anything more general-purpose is already commodity - ERP being the prime example.
