Am I incorrect about this as an average user?

Got a link to more info about this?

I don't see how they could use the same model as MS Office unless the copyright of the entire code base is owned by a single entity and they are willing to abandon their developer community.

If they've found a profitable free software business model then I'm all for it. Developing software is not easy and takes a lot of time, if you can make some money from it then that's generally a good a thing, as long as the software is not proprietary.
