And I think the incentive would be as large as the incentive to make "source available" software in our world, so yes, but I think for your question this answer would actually be "no". If I am a developer who only releases binaries to, idk, make sure you pay me to give you updates, I would keep doing that doubly so in a no-copyright world, except I'd also probably invest into tools that make reverse engineering harder.
