I don't share the same feelings about GPL idea and see it as extremely valuable, especially now that rug pull and Amazonification is pervasive.

I do share the feeling towards the free terminology. Over the years he has been fond of libre more and more.

That said I think the reason behind the confusion over the term free is less sincere and somewhat of a Freudian slip in retrospect. I think his original view was indeed against commercialization and he pivoted to the current iteration of Free Software advocacy. By the way, Linus is on the record making the same mistake and initially licensing Linux under a non-commercial license.
