> The Elastic license is an attempt to maintain feature parity between the cloud and self-hosted tool while still being protected

I don’t know enough about the elastic license but I very much prefer this approach. I’ve seen a lot of source available projects deliberately refuse to implement features, and just generally let the product managers spend time on dark pattern bait-and-switch to drive sales. It misaligns the incentives, and complicates the product offering. It’s infuriating for developers. This is much clearer for everyone.
