Control language and you control people's expectations. Like the shift from 'Private Message' to 'Direct message'. 'Open Source' to 'Source Available' would be just as massive of a shift in control and power.

I agree with this. The new definition of "open source" has been crafted out of malice. _Anyone_ new to programming runs into this confusion, and that's evidence in itself.
