It’s not nitpicking, the term “open source” is not usually used for this kind of thing, it would be called “shared source”

I did a poll on this on a Discord server a while ago

What does open source mean

You can view the source code: 0 votes

View + use + redistribute for any purpose: 14 votes

So no, your version of it is not the common usage

Was that the OSI discord server? ;) 14 votes in a specific bubble isn't all that representative either.

It's calculator programming related so I'd say not biased in any particular way other than having a lot of hobbyist techy people
