Indeed, now rereading it I understand ypur uncertainty. It would be best if they would clarify it.

I still think they're selling the service (the Element One SAAS thing), but with this wording they could point to this toot if something changes in the future to that end

Matrix is open source these organisations could dedicate their own employees to spin it up

sure but a lot of companies don't want to deal with that, especially non-tech companies. also, look at how popular aws/azure/google cloud is, but also teams, zoom and the whole google suite. Companies love it when it just works, without them needing to pay someone (ideally multiple employees) to keep it operational and up to date. Also, Element One employees will basically always have more experience in maintenance than your own admins.

Do they have somewhere you can purchase the same service?

I don't understand this one. Could you elaborate?
