Hubitat native drivers - closed or open source?

Hello,

(sorry to revive this topic, but i'm very new in the hubitat community)

I'm an open source developer for a very long time, so probably my point of view is a little distorted, but why native devices/apps is not distributed as MIT licence for example?

The community developers could help to improve this drivers/apps. I don't see any values to have this drivers in closed source for the hubitat product, except if i missed something.
In general, open source model development is very interesting and add good values in a product.

I already check other open source projects for home automation, but my preference is for hubitat, i understand you don't want to give for free your core, but devices and apps as an open source development seems a very good idea.

Please note, this my intention is not to have a troll ;-). It would be nice to consider this approach for your product.

My experience is developing an open source platform for 15 years, and using free software more than 20 years.

Thank you for your great product.
Sylvain
