And it doesn't appear that AWS is hosting these right now, just distributing so they must be paying some kind of licensing for ES. But I'm sure that will change.

Re OpenES, its an apache licensed distro without proprietary commercial bits.
One of the concerns I have had with the recent trending of some opensource companies (elastic, timescaledb, and others), is that those who mix in proprietary code into their opensource repos, effectively taint contributors who can't even look at git history on a project without viewing stuff thats not opensource.
Did AWS do the same thing with Mongo?
I believe in response to some licensing changes MongoDB made, so the AWS service targets the last permitted license release by Mongo.

*I forgot to mention, they did not release the code for this as you may have been looking for apple-to-apple comparison with the ES situation.
Amazon DocumentDB was in development for a long time, and development started well before any of the license changes that MongoDB (the company) made to MongoDB (the database).
