Western LLM providers release open weight models too (e.g. Mistral).

Good! If they're not open, they're creating more lock-in. And on top of that, they're using information they don't own to do so and then renting it back to us.
I 100% support it as a consumer :P but IMO we do have to be aware that it's just a happy coincidence.

Do you realize how silly you sound ?
"Linux was a Finish conspiracy to cripple hard-working US operating systems makers. It's not really open because I don't understand it."
Leave nationalism to those who want to use you as mere pawns in their imaginary Chess game.
I don't care as long as it doesn't sound sillier than to call them open source. They're literally binaries. Often lossy compressed, even.
Open weights is the equivalent of open source here. DeepSeek is open weight.
If you have some reason to believe a different definition should be used, please provide it. Because there is no source code here.
These are more like really gorgeous corporate swags than FOSS.
