> Innovation dies when creators can't create without someone ripping off their work against the terms they release it under.

I strongly disagree. There would be more innovation if code couldn't be copyrighted or kept secret. See: all of open source.

> I've considered open sourcing some of my product's components under a source available but otherwise proprietary license

What's the point of that? This isn't useful to anyone. The fact you even consider it shows you don't understand open source. I'm sure you happily use open source code yourself though.
