I do not think that attacking programmers with private programs is right. I can understand reasons for doing a program private. One possible reason is that he wants to release a commercial version in the future but I think that this is not the reason in this case because he is not going to earn less money because of releasing a version that is more than 100 elo weaker than a possible future commercial version. Another possible reason is that he wants to use ICC to play against humans and if he releases insomaniac then part of the games in ICC may be against another insomaniac and less humans are going to play his insomaniac so he is going to have less games against humans.
