The line between Vite and Vite+ exists mostly inside your head. From the outside, Vite is the open core and some set of features are only in Vite+.

Best of luck with your commercial project. History has not been kind to open core projects.

it is upto vite team to decide between "open source" or "open core". from my perspective, there is no data to say otherwise, so your "from outside" translates to "In my opinion, but I take no responsibilty for it"

No, they don't get to define what those terms mean.

they certainly get to decide which label to pick for their projects (vite and vite+). you should complain if they do not act according to their choosen labels. but there is nothing done at the moment to complain about.
