Amazon has continually moved to keep source open. They have actively worked to distribute Open Distro Elasticsearch (keeping it under a fully-free license), Apache Corretto (binaries for the OpenJDK to make it more accessible to end-users), etc. Using similar APIs increases consumer choice and interoperability, making it easier to go from open to hosted but also from hosted to open.

These proposed licenses neither are open-source nor free software and are very poor ideas. The SSPL clearly breached the boundaries of open source and the OSI's opinion was only "premediated" in the sense that that was the agreed-upon definition.
