"Non-profit" mainly means that because they have no shares and no shareholders, they're committed to never letting their company get acquired.

They're still allowed to grow, and have to in order to pay their salaries and hire more people.

Growth, no, but they need a consistent revenue stream and if they don't shift focus away from their open source aspects to their paying customers, then their market share will be stolen by the companies that do and they'll lose their revenue stream
