Given the context, "PyQt is available under the GPL and a commercial

Which is a wrong interpretation of “commercial”.

But he is not interpreting either “commercial” or GPL.

What he says is: here's the code for free (gratis, no price) under the
GPL, but if you don't like it, I also offer it commercially (under an
undisclosed license, maybe a custom one as required by the client).

Right. In this case, "commercial" describes the way he is offering the license, not what uses of the software the license allows. Everyone here knew exactly what he meant.
