We addressed this question in the Budapest Open Access Initiative 20th anniversary recommendations (2022).
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/boai20/We recommended open and decentralized infrastructure for #OpenAccess and #OpenScience. But what if the best infrastructure for a given purpose at a given time is not open or not decentralized? See recommendations 1.5 and 1.6.
From 1.5: "If the open alternatives are inadequate, that could be a good short-term reason to choose closed infrastructure. At the same time, it’s a good long-term reason to improve the open alternatives. If we can’t have first-rate open infrastructure today, for a given purpose, we should take steps to have it tomorrow."
