Since this is 10+ years old, wasn't OpenOffice (then StarOffice, or some German name) a commercial product at that time?

So any association with this easter egg and "open source" is incidental at best. The failure to remove it is the only real lapse and I'd rather have them working on MS Excel import than removing silly easter eggs.
