Paizo is literally rereleasing all the pf2e rules under the "ORC" a license that's unlike the OGL in that nobody can fuck with it after the fact like hasbro tried to do with OGL.

It basically allows everyone access to the mechanics in perpetuity. When you pay for pathfinder, you pay for the creative work and support their continued development of the system.

tbf to the writers, the OGL was meant to function in the same way, it's just WotC applied a decade of lawyers to the problem until they found a loophole. Paizo were perfectly happy operating under the OGL for over a decade, because they were confident that what they wrote couldn't be backtracked.
