You are saying this like pursuing profit above anything else is not a moral judgment one can heavily disagree with.

No; they aren’t making a judgement. They’re just describing a relationship between the nature of a platform and its likely future behaviour.

Pursuing profit is not a moral judgement.

It's at best neutral, and at worst considered to be immoral.

Nobody says "I need to make a billion dollars because of my morals".

Is Linux really about "profit before all else?" That seems like a moral judgement that many would disagree with.
