I'm honestly in favor of something like that, but when people are saying SSPL isn't FOSS because it supposedly discriminates against different classes of users, we won't get the momentum for people to view any sort of "FOSS except for commercial" license as valid or worth using.
Some such licenses exist (not saying they're good or anything). PolyForm Noncommercial and PolyForm Small Business are two examples https://polyformproject.org/licenses/
