I think your definition of open source is flawed.

Their own FAQ answer to “Is Lumberyard open source?” starts with “No.”
"Open source" generally means not only can you get the source code, but you can use it freely and make your modifications available to others. There's some wiggle room for exactly what qualifies there, but Amazon's terms are pretty far from any gray areas.
No, you're confusing open source and source available.
Blame the Open Source Initiative :)
