Open source is specifically about the code, not the hardware, even less manufacturing. OSHW is about the hardware and has specific requirements in order to get the label and ID, e.g certification.oshwa.org/de000008.html and process certification.oshwa.org/process.html

So which part is proprietary exactly? In theory as they sell via CrowdSupply www.crowdsupply.com/apply it should be both OSHW and open source but I didn’t dig.
