getting downvotes... probably because my comment sounds like it should not be important, that's not what I mean.

There are database products like MongoDB with closed source. I was curious about the author's reasoning in this particular case. E.g. apart of transparency and community contributions, etc

MongoDB is not a closed source product. It is licensed under the SSPL and the source code is available to all.
