Can I use the Yocto Layers and Recipes in a build using BitBake (YP's build
tool) to make a commercial device? Yes.

The question would then be:
Can I use the Yocto Layers and Recipes in a build using BitBake (YP's build
tool) to make a commercial application using the Application Development license?

That’s my true question, is application development license allowed into that context or are we force to use the device creation license.

There is no commercial device license on the web site it’s either Application development or Device creation:

Your question is actually:

Can I use the Yocto Layers and Recipes in a build using BitBake (YP's build
tool) to make a commercial device? Yes.

Can I use the meta-qt6 layer to build a commercial Qt? Tuukka's answer says
yes.

BitBake will produce a BOM for you with a list of licences and your
obligations.
