It is true that the license is not OSI-approved, but it allows redistributing, studying and modifying the source as discussed in the Debian packaging intent. As the license states it is free for non-commercial use and commercial use requires a paid license to fund development. It is also free for public GitHub repositories, even for commercial projects: https://github.com/apps/firebuild.
