I could be wrong, but I thought the main reason for the license change was due to predatory practices of large organizations like amazon or gcp taking open source tech, privatizing it and leveraging cloud advantages at a high price point. Its a hard road to keep open source open while predatory orgs can make a profit providing the same product just at scale. Again, just my own interpretation and always up to learn more about things.
