What you are doing is trying to get the benefits of claiming that you are open source, without truly making it open source.
What is open source is well known in the industry. If you search on google what open source mean - you will find that you don't fit the criteria.
It would be much more ethical to truthfully say what you are doing. And don't get me wrong, what you are doing is still great.

I disagree. If I was trying to take advantage of it, I'd use the term "open source" everywhere like some other projects do. But I tried to find a middle ground so the zealots would be happy(ish). But in the end I'll never make everybody happy, regardless of how much I stress about words [0] [1].
