> allowing open-source developers to capture the value they create
But... then why would I use their code if whatever value it creates is captured by them the developers and so I am no better from where I was? That's like paying your employees the additional value they produce instead of the market wages: you then literally have no reason to hire them since their work is exactly profit-neutral.
As if the only goal a potential employer could possibly have is to accrue capital.
