Huh, interesting concept. It's definitely a big step above "source available". It even kind of allows maintaining a community version with outside patches, albeit slowly.

It kind of rivals the KDE/Qt deal of "freely licensed when the company goes under" in its effects of the code eventually being community-maintainable once the company doesn't care for it anymore.

5 years is a bit much though.
