They are open-core, not all their features are open source. No need for them to go BSL.

Yeah they could start eating the core, but my experience has been the opposite.

They are already facing fierce competition fron Gitea and sourcehut. If they start taking toys away from big open source instances like Debian, GNOME, Free desktop, et cetera, the community will migrate.
