I don't have the time or energy to rebut this, but here is David Wiley with the commercial model of open, once again: " Rather than investing our time and energy trying to one up each other creating even more grossly overexaggerated negative metaphors for publishers, we should spend some time and energy making concrete, tactical suggestions about how they can make the transition to open successfully.... Unless you've spent time really listening to publishers and trying to understand what they're trying to do, your head and heart are probably full of misconceptions and stereotypes about them." I guess the University of California really should have tried to understand things from Elsevier's point of view.
