The issue is also discussed here:
https://lwn.net/Articles/1019028/

A better wording goes:
s/open source license/DFSG-compatible license/g

It is fixed in the git repo:
https://salsa.debian.org/lumin/gr-ai-dfsg/-/commit/9496f9fb6405db5a99fff1672cd4bad66c925c24

The proposal after amendament:

===============================================================================
Proposal A: "AI models released under DFSG-compatible license license without
            original training data or program" are not seen as DFSG-compliant.
===============================================================================

The "AI models released under DFSG-compatible license license without original
training data or program", a particular type of files as explained above, are
not seen as DFSG-compliant. Hence, they can not be included in the "main"
section of the Debian archive. This proposal does not specify whether the
"non-free" section of Debian archive can include those files.
