Value and "worth money" are two separate concepts, don't conflate them. Your error is to think that just because you made something valuable it has to be worth money. That is a fallacy and also entitlement. There is no deception with open source. It's something valuable explicitly made free to multiply its value. It's how Wolfenstein 3D and Doom spread around. Their first mission was handed out for free as shareware, so people could freely distribute it to basically everyone.Their creator also understood the value of open source and made the engine of every of their games open source as soon as they released the next best game, which enabled many other creators to make their own games based on those engines. And many great games came from it. Give and you shall receive. It's that simple. Yet Nintendo are being dickheads about it and refuse their community this. Like it or not, Mario is part of our culture now. Everything we call culture was once just consumption. It's just that things that haven't been forgotten are called culture. It's also where the term "cult movie" comes from; from culture. Value and culture are also different concepts, don't conflate them either. There's a thing in Spain's culture where men provoke bulls to I guess fight with them. It's completely batshit insane, yet it's their culture.

Well, we both disagree then.
