To say sorry, simple
why should they open-source it? give away everything to the competitors for free? browsers like Arc, Dia, Zen cater to niche tech audience, and there's a very little scope for monetisation with small set of uers.
Browsers like firefox, while being free, make money with default search engine deals, the volume of users is what makes money for firefox, same is not possible with Arc. Firefox has 100-150m active users while Arc had 1-2 million at peak.

Thanks for the idea @JaceThings - My @diabrowser Grains Tweak now matches the Arc Grain style. ORRR You can select from few other textures if you would like. (Sand is my fav)

Putting so much work in tweaks for Dia recently, I think I should also just start working on my own browser. How I want a browser to be.

Continuing to refining. Our sidebar address bar now shows @diabrowser generated file names and better visuals for active or inactive tabs.
Seems you all loved it - so here's more refined version of sidebar address bar in @diabrowser
