I've also participated, as a volunteer, in the OSAID process. And once it became clear that OSI was opposed to mandating training data access, I've "battled" (for lack of a better term) for either a two-term definition (e.g., "open weight" vs "open source") or an additional qualifier (e.g., level 1/2/3/4), depending on whether training data were open data/public data/obtainable data/private data. I regret having lost that battle too. (But I still think that OSAID is better than nothing, given the current state of the AI industry, and that it will play a positive role in upcoming regulations.)
