In this case the passive income is like landlording off the intellectual property rights of the API, it is a form of rent seeking, and im pretty sure the good socialist take here is "it's fine for a person to get fair compensation for their work but not okay to own and profit from that ownership for literal perpetuity so that they can be paid for the same dead labor over and over again"
Yeah, there is some depth to it but mostly to prevent exploitation of the time it takes when considering the uncompensated education or experience that allows it
