I mean I get the service part, but why can’t somebody not just copy your code and do it better? Or just take your code make it closed source? Thanks

Support contracts — if your business critically depends on my software, then even if it’s open sourced, don’t you want to be able to get help from the people who made it should there be an issue? Yeah you could get someone else to do it too but they probably don’t know it as well as I do.
