Not so:

Yes, so liquibase is still perfectly open source according to this definition.
That's the definition of "source available", not "open source".
Are you deliberately being obtuse? Do you have an axe to grind?

'Open source' has a commonly agreed upon meaning, 'source available' has a meaning. You are mistaking open source for just source available.
