For the sake of argument, lets say that the closed-source frameworks
have to be purchased by the user. So, to run the binary you have to buy
a closed-source operating system and two closed-source frameworks.
Nothings stopping anyone from porting the source of my app to an
open-source OS and open-source frameworks. It just hasn't been done yet.
