Might want to clarify: The "model" in this case is not a full model like Stable Diffusion, but rather something used like a patch, more comparable to something like LoRA

I don't think that anyone would misunderstand anyway, but better safe than sorry

That’s the real meat of this. The future of models will be these smaller, focused “patches” that have some kind of traceable lineage. At least when it comes to marketing and selling these.
