Not that it is ideal, but if they reject a full replacement to "free software", maybe they'd consider "free/libre and open source software". I'm not fond of "free and open source software" because (as an increasing trend) often times when I read it, it means "free as in beer and open source software", and this is what users are trained to recognize. But that's also better than just "open source", and can be supplemented with a hyperlink on "free" to point to <https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html>.
