Assuming yes, it would’ve been outdated, and this give them access to fresh new code for a foreseeable future in the case of Microsoft blocking access from other AI to make it exclusive for Co-Pilot.
They don’t have to offer this to get new versions, that’s kinda the point of foss software, it’s there for anyone to download and use however they like whenever they want.

Hot how ever they like though, that would be code under MIT ant the like, not all FOSS. Where the other licenses actually fall?
No, the GPL doesnt put any restrictions on what you can do with code, just on that code and derivatives of it have to be released (source code included) under the GPL as well.
The courts have tended to find that training LLMs on data you have legal access to is fair use and transformative.
