You've probably got the wrong impression. My own startups have failed partially because I'm so bad at lying -- even small white lies. Mostly my own projects are just open sourced or maintained for free for a small community of passionate users. I've realized I'm great at building software, built terrible at marketing, sales, and extracting capital.
Still, ripping off open-source projects seems plainly scummy, and is a strong signal of a lack of actual product level competence. Hence my difficulty to find anything redeemable about your take.
No personal attacks, please.

Well, OK, that's actually rather commendable.
