Programmers

Programmers are the worst losers in the whole world.  They are
humanity's most useless members.

Unable to do anything since their childhood because of their black
soul and dull conscience they start digging the memory of a primitive
device --- personal computer --- their parents bought to them out of
pity.  These diggings (also called "programming"), which are in fact
nothing but typing meaningless strings of symbols solely to relieve
the pain in an empty and worthless soul, induce the feeling of
euphoria, which, however, doesn't last for very long, and soon it
makes space for more familiar loneliness, tastelessness and
senselessness of existence; such feelings can only appear in a dry and
talentless soul, in a soul can only see emptiness, despair and
unwillingness to live, limited by perishing and ash-like body.

you're an idiot.
we're not talking about whether the software is open source or not. we're talking about whether it's free or not.
the open source or not open source question was already decided. all that's left is the free (BSD/MIT/equivalent) or antifree (GPL) question.

it's not a question of whether or not the source is available. it's a question of whether or not you're allowed to delete the source from your computer after you compile it (without any modifications) and give the binary to someone without giving them 500MB of source code that they don't want.

now, you'll probably say that if they don't want the source code you don't need to keep it. but if they give the binary to someone else, and that person decides they want the source, then the person you gave the binary is legally required to get the source and give it to them. and if they can't get the source from somewhere else, you're legally required to give it to them. and if you don't keep a copy of the source and it's no longer available from where you got it from, you violated the GPL and therefore can't use that GPLed software at all, for any purpose.
