I don't think that is ambitious:

With the aim of not hampering innovation: (i) free and open-source software developed or supplied outside the course of commercial activity[1]

You are only in a commercial activity if you sell that product to that customer or you sold it to a distributor who then sold it to a customer.

E.g. if a customer doesn't buy from you he has no commercial activity with you so no liability.

I would argue that code is code and only becomes a non fungible product in the instance of selling it and only then the laws apply
