I consider this question quite clear. Is it of importance to you that 
OSM is focusing on non-commercial use.

What could be alternatives? OSMF itself could try to monetize maps. 3rd 
party companies could monetize OSM more than currently.

It's about your opinion. How important is the non-commercial aspect of a 
community project (here: OSM) to you?

This is not about the OSM license.
