Why would they do that. These guys are generating revenue by offering managed service, not by selling opensource software.

For the same reasons MongoDB and Redis changed their licenses to avoid AWS et al offering it as a managed service?
That's a different story. Aws was competiting for revenue with the developers of MongoDB and Redis' for profit company. Postgres' publisher does not use managed service as a source of income.
Of course, but I was just offering a reason for why they would want to do that. It’s not as if it’s unreasonable if they did that.
