"Commercial rights reserved" does not mean the same thing as "noncommercial".
Noncommercial includes the concept that a work is meant to be primarily or
entirely outside of the commercial realm rather than the creator reserving
commercial rights.

Some of us would like to broaden the part of our world that is not thought of
in commercial terms - including many instances where people are paid for
their work.

best,

Heather Morrison
