The term "open source" was coined for a specific meaning, and codified.

Destroying the meaning of words is an activity for Orwellian villains.

Although OSI claims that they coined the term, there's irrefutable proof that the term was already in-use well before that. Originally, "open source" just meant "source available": https://dieter.plaetinck.be/posts/open-source-undefined-part...

I coined it today to mean something else. There is no reason to take someone's meaning of a word for gospel.
