Open Source definition ( https://opensource.org/osd ) says nothing about community involvement or accepting contributions. It may be common, but it is not necessary, required or even hinted at in the license.

Open source is not a philosophy, it is a license.

For many it is very much a philosophy, a principle, and politics. The OSI is not the sole arbiter of what open source is, and while their definition is somewhat commonly referred to, it is not the be all end all.

Sovereign citizens believe they dont need to adhere to the law, individual belief sadly doesn't override reality.

I could say the same about the practical reality of open contributions being extremely heavily interwoven with open source.

We're debating made up stuff here. The reality is all in our collective heads.
