Well boy howdy do I have news for you lol.

Tf2 is open source now - just with non-commercial strings.

Just to be pedantic, if the source is available, but there are restrictions on how the source is used, it's not open source.

Open source licenses do not forbid anyone from using the source code for any purpose.

Fair enough, then a more apt statement would be a permissive non-commercial license with media assets injected from the base game (alla GMOD)

I've heard the term source available be used, though not sure how popular it is.
