So that’s like saying Google, Samsung is not open source. Not Android.
AOSP (Android Open Source Project) is separate from Google’s. Similar to how RHEL and other related OSs are separate from Linux. Even though Google contributes to Android and Redhat contributes to Linux.
Same with Linux. I don’t know of anyone who runs Linux from Scratch. Every Linux distro adds non-open code, be it audio drivers or codecs and the like.
How come? Isn’t that like saying Linux is not open source these days because RedHat keeps making their code more restrictive?
No, that’s like saying RedHat isn’t open source.

uhhhh… I think? Android is built from linux, with a modified linux kernel, so linux can still be open source even when Android mostly isn’t.
Android is also open source. Here’s the source: https://github.com/aosp-mirror
