That’s just saying what you can do with the code. It doesn’t mean I owe you anything.
What did you think it meant?

It depends on what the license says, who owes who.

Cool, nobody said you did.
Similarly, there’s no binding contract that says when you remove features from your software’s community edition in order to drive more profits without any added value, I’m disallowed from criticizing you for it.
