When they say this is their reason for going with a different license, I believe them. I don’t come up with conspiracy theories that they’re maliciously trying to harm something I love. Even if I was prone to conspiracy theories, I’d at least come up with a mechanism for _how_ the movement would be harmed. I wouldn’t just fling a serious accusation at people who are working hard just for the sake of farming upvotes
Look, free software and open source have a certain tradeoff and definition. If you don't like it, don't use the license and don't call your products open or free software.
I specifically referred to Sentry and CockroachDB in my comment
> This means that CockroachDB core is no longer Open Source (according to OSI’s Open Source Definition), although the complete source code is still available, and any commercial usage is allowed with the one exception of building a DBaaS
> Although we’ve come to refer to the BSL as eventually open-source since it converts to an OSI-approved license at the conversion date, due to the grant restriction, it is formally not an open-source license.
