The thing about legal threats is that they can work even if the theory they are based on isn't any good. Fee-shifting isn't always guaranteed, if it is available at all. Capital has already budgeted for its lawyers this year, have you?
Yep, this even has a name, SLAPP.
I'm not sure if this would strictly be a SLAPP rather than general litigious bullying (GLiB has a nice ring to it actually.)
In this respect though open sourcing it was a good move. Even if the creator were to be blocked from distributing, it's out there.
